1954 Map of Beacon Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern expanse of this 1954 survey, defining the industrial and social character of the Keweenaw Peninsula shoreline. The coastal landscape is marked by the presence of the Copper Range railroad, which served the crucial mining and milling settlements along the bank. Significant industrial infrastructure is evident at Redridge, where the Redridge Dam and a prominent Stack indicate the area's history as a hub for stamp mills.
