2018 Map of Wood Lake

About this map

The Ice Age National Scenic Trail winds through a densely wooded and wetland-rich landscape on the border of Taylor and Lincoln counties. This northern Wisconsin terrain is defined by its complex glacial hydrology, where water bodies like Wood Lake, Mud Lake, and the Camp Eight Flowage are interconnected by a web of small streams including New Wood Cr and Porky Cr. The map reveals a remote area organized by a grid of rural roads such as Wilderness Ave and Camp 8 Rd, which provide access to the various flowages and river forks. The drainage patterns of the N Fork Copper River and Old Johnson Cr highlight the low-lying, marshy character of the region, making this a significant document for understanding the modern conservation and recreation corridors established along the ancient glacial path.
