2013 Map of Spirit

About this map

The unincorporated community of Spirit serves as the focal point for this Price County survey, situated at the junction of Wi-102 and Wi-86. The landscape is defined by the branching waterways of the Spirit River and the N Fork Spirit River, which weave through a network of rural roads that reflect the area's agricultural and ethnic history. Distinctive local routes such as German Settlement Rd and S German Settlement Rd point toward the heritage of the region's early residents, while Cheese Factory Rd suggests a landscape once tied to Wisconsin's iconic dairy industry. The northern reaches are drained by Ritchie Cr and Knox Cr, while the southern border follows the Co Line Rd near the Center Fork New Wood River. Family-named landmarks such as Fox Farm Rd and Hilmer Olson Rd further document the local geography of the early 21st century.
