1972 Map of Twelvefoot Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Twelvefoot Falls and the cascading waters of the Pike River system define this landscape in north-central Marinette County. The map documents a rugged water network featuring Eighteenfoot Falls Rapids, Eightfoot Falls, and Horseshoe Falls, highlighting the area's significance for regional recreation and conservation. Centered on Twelvefoot Falls County Park, the terrain is marked by the legacy of early industry and transport, notably the Old Railroad Grade that winds through the townships of Dunbar and Athelstane. Numerous small glacial lakes, including Kidd Lake, Phillips Lake, and Annabelle Lake, are scattered across the timbered lowlands. The presence of Whiskey Creek and the South Branch Pike River further illustrates the intricate drainage patterns of the Wisconsin Northwoods during the early 1970s.
