2022 Map of Trade Lake

About this map

Trade Lake and the nearby settlements of Four Corners and Atlas define this northern Wisconsin landscape where the Trade River and Wood River drain through a dense network of glacial lakes. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Mission Cem, Zion Cem, and Union Cem, which serve as cornerstones for genealogical research in Burnett and Polk Counties. The area's ancient history is physically marked by an Indian Mound south of Long Trade Lake. Significant water bodies including Spirit Lake, Big Trade Lake, and Wood Lake dominate the terrain, connected by rural routes such as Co Hwy H and Co Hwy W. The mapping detail reflects a lakeside community structured around these historic crossroads and natural resources, providing a clear picture of the region's mid-20th-century residential and agricultural footprint.
