About this map

Star Lake and its surrounding glacial lake country define this northern Wisconsin landscape as it appeared in the early 2020s. This survey detail reveals an intricate network of water bodies and wetland systems, from the expansive Lake Laura and Plum Lake to smaller, secluded basins like Nineweb Lake and Lake Alva. The settlement at Star Lake remains the primary hub of the quadrangle, with the Star Lake Cem providing a grounded link to the area's local genealogy.

Natural water sources such as Rainbow Spring, Goodyear Springs, and Siphon Springs feed into the complex drainage of Stella Creek and Star Creek. The map documents a modern road network including Co Rd K and Statehouse Rd, alongside specialized routes like the Decker Lake Game Trl, illustrating how contemporary recreation and conservation management have shaped access to these Vilas County woods and waters.
