2010 Map of Zoar

About this map

Zoar stands as the primary community in this 2010 survey of a water-rich landscape defined by the drainage of the Little West Branch Wolf River and its numerous tributaries. The geography is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and small ponds, including Lake Neconish, Lake Noseum, and Lake Elma, which are connected by forest roads and residential ways like Zoar Rd and Lake Elma Rd. The presence of Camp Black Hawk near Niobe Lake and the Red River Camp suggests a landscape largely shaped by seasonal recreation and conservation. Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named routes such as Ernest Neconish Rd, Lukes Rd, and Oshkosh Rd, which provide access to the remote lakefronts and creeks that define this portion of Wisconsin.
