About this map

Ashland and Washburn anchor the shores of Chequamegon Bay in this mid-century coastal study, where the industrial and educational character of the region is clearly mapped. The urban grid of Ashland is detailed alongside Northland College and several vital transport links, including the Northern Pacific and Chicago and Northwestern railroads. To the north, the specialized settlement of Barksdale is marked by the presence of the Du Pont Power Plant, reflecting the area's role in supporting regional manufacturing and power.
