1954 Map of Atkinson

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Atkinson and Duesler anchor this Carlton County landscape, where the Burlington Northern and Soo Line railroads carve paths through a dense network of water and wetlands. The terrain is defined by its glacial heritage, featuring numerous lakes including Sandy Lake, Blackhoof Lake, and Flodin Lake, while the Moose River and Blackhoof River drain the northern reaches. This 1954 survey, with 1969 revisions, documents a rural community centered on its local institutions, from the Blackhoof Valley Sch and Central Sch to numerous neighborhood houses of worship like Pentecost Ch and Elim Ch. To the south, the Nemadji State Forest boundary signals the transition into protected timberlands. The map reveals the intricate infrastructure of the era, including a major pipeline and various gravel pits that underscore the area's mid-century industrial and transport utility.
