USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Washburn and Ashland anchor this mid-1960s study of the Chequamegon Bay shoreline, where heavy industrial infrastructure meets the deep waters of Lake Superior. The landscape is defined by its maritime and rail heritage, featuring an extensive breakwater and a dense network of lines from the Chicago and North Western, Northern Pacific, and SoO Line. These railroads converge at Ashland Junction, illustrating the area's role as a shipping hub for the region's timber and minerals.
