Traveling on US-41 through northeastern Wisconsin? Then you'll be traveling through American history! Colonial trade routes of the 1700โ€™s connected the waterways and canals of the Northwoods to the early American colonies. Those trade routes eventually became todays roads and railways; and US-41 does not receive enough credit for the role it played as major trade route in early American history!

In the early 1800s, the need for consumer products, such as barrels for dry goods, brought settlers and prospectors north, where the enormous white pines were plentiful. Logging communities developed and thrived, and the discovery of iron ore, copper, and other precious metals, brought even more industry northward. US-41 is one of the oldest and longest routes in the continental US, stretching from Michigan to Florida, connecting the Midwest to both the East and the West.

Some communities off of US-41 have been lost to fire, some have surviving structures but were abandoned, and some remain today. If early logging life and river trade with Native Americans in Wisconsin & Michigan interest you, visit: Marinette County Historical Museum, in Marinette, WI, and Menominee Heritage Museum in Menominee, MI. If life & culture in the late 1800โ€™s is more your thing, be sure to check out the Peshtigo Fire Museum, in Peshtigo, WI where America's deadliest fire took place in 1871.
