2013 Map of Wheeler Lake

About this map

Wheeler Lake anchors this Oconto County landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and springs feeding the North Branch Oconto River. The presence of the Wheeler Lake Swimming Beach and a dense grid of forest roads, such as National Forest Road 2253 and Forrester Rd, indicates the area's development for recreation and timber management within the national forest system. Smaller water bodies like Bullfrog Lake, Miriam Lake, and Pine Ridge Lake are interspersed with distinct landforms such as Deer Island and Virgin Island. The map also details numerous natural springs, including Sullivan Springs, Hickey Springs, and Forbes Spring, which contribute to the headwaters of the N Fork Thunder River and McCaskin Brook.
