Shawano Lake in Shawano County, Wisconsin

This lake has 8 Layers or 15 Layers for HD Version

Shawano Lake is a 6,215-acre hard water drainage lake in northeastern Wisconsin's Shawano County, featuring 18 miles of scenic shoreline, an average depth of 9 feet, and reaching a maximum depth of 42 feet near its deepest areas. Named after Chief Sawanoh, a Menominee Indian chief who camped with his tribes along these shores, the lake is fed by multiple inlets and maintained by a dam on the Wolf River that regulates water levels. This warm water fishery hosts exceptional populations of Walleye, Northern Pike, Musky, Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Black Crappie, Bluegill, Yellow Perch, and Pumpkinseed, with annual stocking programs maintaining healthy Musky populations and a successful Walleye spawning reef established in the mid-1980s. The lake serves as an important resting stop for migrating waterfowl including American White Pelicans and Tundra Swans, while providing year-round recreation including fishing tournaments, boating with no horsepower restrictions, swimming, water skiing, ice fishing, and winter ice racing events

Located adjacent to the city of Shawano and just 30 minutes north of Green Bay, Shawano Lake offers convenient access to northeastern Wisconsin's attractions and natural wonders. The surrounding area features the 15,000-acre Navarino State Wildlife Area, one of Wisconsin's premier wildlife viewing destinations with 101 bird species including Sandhill Cranes and Bald Eagles. Visitors can enjoy the 83-mile Mountain-Bay State Trail, whitewater rafting on the Wolf River, and viewing the nation's largest lake sturgeon migration at Sturgeon Park each spring. Shawano Lake County Park provides a sandy swimming beach, four-ramp boat launch, camping facilities, and extensive recreational amenities, while the area offers golfing, hiking, biking, and three nearby casinos for additional entertainment

This magnificent laser-cut wooden topographical map of Shawano Lake would create a stunning centerpiece in your lakeside cottage, family room, or office, celebrating your connection to this northeastern Wisconsin gem. The artistic design showcases a natural wood top layer elegantly framing the lake's distinctive shape and 18 miles of intricate shoreline detail, while the water depths are beautifully represented through a captivating gradient flowing from light blue in the shallow 9-foot average areas to rich deep blue at the impressive 42-foot maximum depth. Every contour and shoreline feature is precisely laser-etched into the layered wood construction, creating a three-dimensional work of art that captures the essence and character of this beloved fishing and recreation destination

Dimensions:

The difference between standard and HD maps is the number of layers. Standard maps have 1 land layer and 7 water layers. " The HD lake maps have 1 land layer and 14 water layers. So twice the detail. The HD Maps are limited to Extra Large, " XX Large, and Gigantic sizes only. On the smaller sizes the depth change of the wood is too extreme and you end up losing detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these actually 3D or just engraved?

These are true 3D layered maps.

  • Made from 1/8 inch Baltic birch
  • Standard maps have 8 layers. 1 land layer and 7 water layers
  • HD maps have 15 layers. 1 land layer and 14 water layers

Each water layer uses a light to dark blue gradient so depth changes are easy to see.

Where are these made?

Everything is made in my shop in Minnesota.

  • Design
  • Cutting
  • Painting
  • Assembly
  • Frame building

The frames start as locally sourced rough sawn hardwood and are built from scratch.

Do you use real depth data?

Yes, as an angler and map nerd, accuracy matters to me. I use multiple data sources, up to six, to find the most accurate lake contours available.

I would not hang an inaccurate map in my house and I will not send one to yours.

Why buy from Horn Dog Maps instead of Etsy or marketplace sellers?

Most marketplace sellers:

  • Buy pre-made cut files, often from overseas
  • Have no connection to the lakes
  • Cannot verify accuracy
  • Have long delays if a file is not available

This leads to lower accuracy and longer lead times, often 6 to 8 weeks.

Because I design everything myself:

  • I can create a new lake mockup in about 30 minutes
  • You get a more accurate map, faster

What is your lead time?

Most orders ship in 1.5 to 2 weeks depending on the time of year.

Tell me about the Cribbage Boards

These are different from the layered maps and are not something you will find elsewhere.

  • Made from a solid piece of Maple or Cherry
  • The lake is engraved as if drained
  • Then filled with blue tinted epoxy that is still transparent

You can see:

  • Channels
  • Humps
  • Points
  • Structure

Additional features:

  • 2 or 3 track options
  • Choice of peg colors
  • Hidden peg storage with a magnetic dovetail slider
  • Rubber feet so it does not slide on the table

It is a functional game board and a detailed lake model in one.
