2015 Map of Wapogasset Lake

About this map

Wapogasset Lake and its surrounding glacial terrain dominate this portion of Polk County, where the Apple River and Wapogasset Branch create a complex network of waterways. The landscape is dotted with smaller basins such as Bear Trap Lake, Goose Lake, and Ox Lake, many of which are linked by seasonal streams or low-lying wetlands. Human settlement is concentrated in small communities like Deronda, Wanderoos, and the northern edge of Amery. Genealogists may find value in the locations of Travelers Rest Cem and Lincoln Cem, while the inclusion of the Amery Municipal Airport and the damming at Black Brook Flowage reflects the 21st-century infrastructure supporting this recreation-heavy region. The grid of county highways and local roads like Lone Pine Ln and Sunrise Beach Dr illustrates the dense development of lakeside properties and agricultural parcels.
