1970 Map of Balsam

About this map

Savanna Portage State Park dominates this Aitkin County landscape, preserving the continental divide where the West Savanna River and East Savanna River flow toward the Mississippi and Lake Superior respectively. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals a complex network of glacial kettle lakes, including Glacier Lake, Wakefield Lake, and Wolf Lake, interspersed with extensive marshlands and peat bogs. The small settlement of Balsam and the Chapel in the Pines serve as focal points for the few developed areas within the larger Savanna State Forest.
