About this map

The Saint Croix River forms a dominant natural boundary in this northern Wisconsin landscape, carving a path through the Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway. Near its banks, the settlement of Riverside sits at the junction of several forest trails and roads, while Big Island marks a significant split in the river's channel. The area is defined by a high density of kettle lakes, a common glacial legacy, ranging from the large Big Bear Lake and Webb Lake to smaller named bodies like Dogtown Lake and the numerically named Twentysix Lake.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Swiss Cem and Hillcrest Cem Association as key landmarks for tracing early families in the region. The map also reveals an extensive network of recreational and logging paths, such as the Saint Croix Trl and Snowmobile Trl, which connect these water bodies. The presence of features like Dogtown Rd and Moore Farm Cr suggests early agricultural or settlement hubs that persisted into the modern era.
