1969 Map of Automba

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Automba occupies a small clearing along the Soo Line tracks in this northern Minnesota landscape, where the geography is defined by extensive wetlands and dense forest. The Salo Marsh State Wildlife Management Area dominates the central portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the importance of conservation lands in Aitkin County during the late 1960s. The hydrology of the region is complex, with the Sandy River and Dead Moose River winding through marshy lowlands, while the West Branch Kettle River drains the northeastern corner near Lakeview. Settlement patterns are sparse and closely tied to the railroad corridor, with only occasional Gravel Pit sites indicating local industrial activity. The boundary between Aitkin Co and Carlton Co cuts through these woods, separating the varied townships of Salo, Clark, and Split Rock.
