2015 Map of Wood Lake

About this map

Ice Age National Scenic Trail winds through the glaciated terrain of the Northwoods, crossing the border between Taylor and Lincoln counties. This landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, featuring numerous kettle lakes and wetland systems like Mud Lake and the prominent Wood Lake. The presence of Camp Eight Flowage along Wood Cr suggests managed water levels in a region historically significant for timber and early logging camps. A dense network of forest roads and trails, such as Bear Ave and Wilderness Ave, provides access to the headwaters of the S Fork Copper River and New Wood Cr. The map details a transition from dense woodland to riparian corridors along streams like Porky Cr and E Lemke Cr, illustrating the wilder, undeveloped character of this portion of northern Wisconsin.
