How to Use This Clear Lake, Wisconsin Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Clear Lake, Wisconsin. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Wisconsin or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Clear Lake.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Clear Lake occupies a quiet portion of the Wisconsin interior, where the land settles into a rhythmic pattern of agricultural fields and modest woodlots. It lies 15.1 miles north-northeast of Saint Croix, WI (from Saint Croix, WI: bearing 22°T), and is situated 8.0 miles north of Forest. The horizon remains level, interrupted only by the distant, softened silhouette of Big Mound, which stands as a faint suggestion of elevation against the pale sky. Ice House Lake sits at the center of this landscape, its surface reflecting the changing moods of the weather, from the hard, slate-gray of an overcast morning to the brilliant, piercing blue of a summer afternoon. Nearby, the banks of Black Brook carve a narrow, winding path through the soil, providing a constant, low-frequency murmur that defines the stillness of the surrounding meadows.

Clear Lake maintains a pace dictated by the seasons, where the local economy finds its roots in the productivity of the surrounding farms and the steady, quiet labor of its residents. The cultural character here is forged by the heritage of those who arrived generations ago, bringing traditions that still linger in the casual, communal gatherings held after the work week concludes. At the Clear Lake Golf Club, the manicured greens provide a deliberate contrast to the wilder, unkempt edges of the nearby thickets, offering a space where the rhythm of the day slows to the pace of a walk. Life in Clear Lake moves with a patient persistence, defined by the reliable turn of the planting and harvest cycles rather than the frantic demands of more densely populated regions.
