1982 Map of Spooner Lake

About this map

Spooner Lake dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, serving as a central hub for the surrounding wetlands and waterways in 1982. The area is defined by its extensive public lands and research facilities, including the Spooner Lake State Public Fishery Area and the University of Wisconsin Experimental Farm near the Yellow River. In the southern reaches, the Beaver Brook State Public Hunting Grounds preserve the marshy terrain around Beaver Brook. Transport and infrastructure are represented by the Chicago and North Western rail line and the Nest of the Eagles Landing Strip. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the small settlement of Anah Springs and the nearby Anah Ch, along with numerous named water bodies like Little Spooner Lake and Dilly Lake that characterize this glacial topography.
