About this map

The settlement of Tipler serves as the primary hub in this northern Wisconsin landscape, situated within the dense timberlands of the Nicolet National Forest. The map documents a complex network of waterways and glacial lakes, including Lilypad Lake, Stevens Lake, and Little Wapoose Lake, which define the local geography near the Michigan border. Traces of the region's logging and recreational history are evident in the naming of roads like Mainline Lake Hwy and the extensive Florence Co Snowmobile trails that crisscross the forest.

Local history is anchored by sites like Martin Cem, located north of Duck Lake. The transition between Florence and Forest counties is marked by shifting terrain around the Pine River and its tributaries, such as Gaspardo Cr and Mainline Cr. The presence of the Bruile River at the northern edge underscores the importance of the river systems in this borderland area during the late twenty-first century.
