About this map

Chequamegon Bay serves as the central focal point of this 1942 field examination, illustrating the industrial and maritime character of the South Shore of Lake Superior. The city of Ashland is shown in detail, featuring the campus of Northland College and an extensive network of railroads including the Northwestern and Northern Pacific. To the north, Washburn and the Barksdale area emphasize the region's mid-century infrastructure, notably the Du Pont Power Plant.
