2013 Map of Spooner Lake

About this map

Spooner Lake and its intricate shoreline dominate this portion of Washburn County, surrounded by a dense network of smaller glacial lakes and marshlands. The landscape is defined by its water, from the winding path of Potato Creek and the Yellow River to the isolated basins of Schullenberger Lake and Deep Lake. In the small settlement of Beaver Brook, the intersection of Us-53 and Wi-70 serves as a modern transportation hub, while more specialized landmarks like the Nest of Eagles Airport near Crystal Mtn suggest a mix of local aviation and recreation. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the rural road system, including named routes like Cranberry Dr and Yellowsands Dr, which trace the irregular terrain of the lake country. Genealogists and local historians can use these specific road names and landmarks, such as Anah Springs and Lutz Lake, to locate family properties and community sites within the north-woods landscape.
