History

Boulder Junction is a small town located in Vilas County, Wisconsin, USA. It is known for its natural beauty, outdoor recreational opportunities, and rich history. The town's history is closely tied to the development of the region as a popular vacation destination and a hub for outdoor enthusiasts.

The area that would later become Boulder Junction was originally inhabited by Native American tribes, including the Ojibwe and Potawatomi. European settlers began to arrive in the mid-1800s, attracted by the abundant natural resources such as timber and waterways.

The town's name, "Boulder Junction," is derived from the large boulders and rock formations that are found throughout the area due to glacial activity during the last Ice Age. These unique geological features contribute to the town's distinctive landscape.
