About this map

The St Croix National Scenic Riverway and Namekagon River Scenic Riverway converge in this northern Wisconsin landscape, shaping a terrain defined by glacial kettle lakes and river bends. The small settlement of Riverside sits near the western edge, adjacent to a Wayside Park and a Gaging Sta along the water. The map reveals a dense network of recreational and community sites, including Luther Park Camp on Twentysix Lake and the Burnett Co Camp, indicating the area's mid-century transition toward seasonal residency and outdoor stewardship.

Local genealogy is anchored by the Hillcrest Cem in the north and Swiss Cem to the south. The landscape is interconnected by historic routes like the St Croix Trail and Chases Road, which navigate between prominent water bodies such as Webb Lake, Big Bear Lake, and Dogtown Lake. This 1983 survey preserves the late-20th-century footprint of Blaine and Swiss townships before further modern development.
