1939 Map of Winchester

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The Winchester area of Vilas County is defined by a dense mosaic of glacial lakes and wetlands during the late 1930s. The settlement of Winchester serves as a local hub near North Turtle Lake and South Turtle Lake, while the tracks of the Chicago and Northwestern railroad cut through the northern timberland near Winegar Lake. This era shows a landscape transitioning from heavy logging toward early recreational use, evidenced by the presence of a C C C Camp and the Rest Lake Fire Tower standing watch over the surrounding forests.
