Explore Hazelhurst, Wisconsin, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hazelhurst, 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 Hazelhurst.
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.

Hazelhurst marks the threshold where the dense, oxygen-rich breath of the North Woods settles over the landscape, defining a terrain of glacial depressions and quiet, reflective waters. It lies 58.8 miles north of Wausau, WI (from Wausau, WI: bearing 356°T), and is situated 8.3 miles south-southwest of Arbor Vitae. Katherine Lake anchors the immediate geography, its surface often holding a glass-like stillness that mirrors the encroaching pines and hardwoods. Beyond the immediate periphery, the land shifts into a mosaic of woodland and wetland, where Kaubashine Creek winds through the undergrowth, its movement barely audible against the ambient hum of the forest. To the distant southwest, the silhouette of the Harrison Hills forms a faint, jagged line against the horizon, providing a permanent boundary to the view. The Bearskin State Trail cuts a deliberate path through this terrain, offering a terrestrial corridor that invites those who travel it to witness the slow, seasonal transitions of the soil and sky.
Hazelhurst emerged from the industry of the timber era, a legacy still visible in the remnants of older structures and the pervasive influence of the surrounding timberlands. While the regional economy has evolved, the local character remains tethered to the forest, with the Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest serving as a primary steward of the natural resources that once fueled the early growth of the region. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a place that understands the weight of winter, where the Bearskin State Park Trail serves as a vital artery for recreation and connection to the wilderness. The culture is one of quiet resilience, marked by traditions that favor the warmth of indoor gatherings and a deep-seated respect for the land’s seasonal moods. In the evenings, the air carries a crisp, pine-scented clarity, a reminder of the vast, wooded expanse that continues to shape the identity of Hazelhurst.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
