1968 Map of Bemidji East

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Mississippi River winds through this 1968 landscape, connecting Lake Bemidji and Lake Irving at the heart of Beltrami County. This era shows Bemidji as a growing regional hub, with the Bemidji State College campus established on the western shore and the community of Nymore positioned near the industrial rail junctions. The map documents a complex transportation network where the Northern Pacific and Great Soo railroads converge, supporting a local economy of gravel extraction and timber. Further south, the settlement of Rosby sits along the Necktie River, while landmarks like the Midway Seaplane Base and a Drive-in Theater capture the mid-century recreational character of the Northwoods. Local heritage is preserved through dozens of labels for community pillars, including Trinity Ch, Aardahl Ch, and the Nymore Cem.
