About this Map
This carefully drawn, artful map of Black Oak Lake captures a remarkably varied lake whose broad, deep eastern basin transitions westward into long narrow arms, bays, points, and shallow-water passages. Detailed bathymetric contours reveal an impressive underwater landscape, with steep drop-offs and multiple deep areas reaching approximately 85 feet, along with submerged ridges, shelves, and shallower western waters. Bottom materials are identified throughout the lake, while roads, buildings, forests, wetlands, and shoreline development provide detailed context for this 564-acre Vilas County lake.
The broader map reveals just how thoroughly Black Oak Lake is embedded within the Northwoods lake country. Big Donahue Lake, Little Donahue Lake, Anderson Lake, Dollar Lake, and George Lake are all shown nearby, along with portions of several additional small lakes and extensive wetland areas. A boat ramp is mapped along Black Oak Lake’s southern shore, while the Wilderness Lakes Trail System passes just south of the lake near County Highway B. The combination of deep water, intricate shoreline geography, neighboring lakes, forests, and relatively light development gives the map a particularly rich sense of Black Oak Lake’s place within northern Vilas County.
