1973 Map of Wilson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The vast Turtle-Flambeau Flowage dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the Manitowish River and Bear River converge. This 1973 survey reflects a region deeply shaped by water management and conservation, with large tracts of land dedicated to the Northern Highland State Forest and the Boot Lake State Wildlife Area. Distinctive landmarks like Bonies Mound rise above the wetlands, while numerous small lakes—including Lehto Lake, Bearskull Lake, and Mirror Lake—dot the timbered terrain. The presence of Murrays Landing and several boat ramps suggests the area's established role as a destination for outdoor recreation. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Springstead Creek feeds into Upper Springstead Lake, illustrating the complex glacial drainage patterns that define Iron County's lake country during this era.
