About this map

The settlement of Tipler sits at the intersection of forest roads and historic section lines in this Northwoods landscape, where the Nicolet National Forest dominates the terrain. This area is defined by its complex hydrology, with numerous named lakes such as Stevens Lake, Lilypad Lake, and the pair of Wapoose Lake and Little Wapoose Lake. The Brule River marks the northern boundary between Wisconsin and Michigan, while the Pine River flows through the southern reaches, connecting a network of creeks including Meadowbrook Cr and Mainline Cr.

Local history is preserved in landmarks like Martin Cem, located along Borzick Rd. The map details a transition from wetland and glacial ponds, like Wolf Pond and Johnson Pond, to the dense timberlands managed by the forest service. Extensive trail and road systems, such as Bald Eagle Blvd and Stevens Lake Rd, provide access to these remote reaches of Florence County, highlighting the region's long-standing reliance on timber and outdoor recreation.
