Wisconsin Road Map

Wisconsin Road Map | Map or Atlas | Wisconsin Historical Society
This colored road map shows roads in Wisconsin as well as portions of nearby states. The map is organized such that a single map of Wisconsin is divided on to two sides of a page, with the northern half on the front side and the southern half on the back. Information on the quality and type of any road shown (paved, improved, scheduled for construction, etc.) can be found in the legend near the bottom left corner of the back side. Below the legend, street maps of Milwaukee, Green Bay, Madison, Kenosha, and Racine are superimposed upon the larger Wisconsin map. Along the left edge of the front side, an index of counties, cities, and towns in Wisconsin is featured with population information. In the top right corner, a list of state parks in Wisconsin is available, next to a mileage chart showing distances between various cities and towns in Wisconsin and a small street map of Duluth-Superior. On the back side, ferry lanes through Lake Michigan are shown, as are fish hatcheries, airports, campsites, U.S. national parks, state parks, and points of interest.
