About this map

The White Pine Mine sits at the northern edge of this survey, marking a significant industrial presence in the Ontonagon County landscape during the late 1940s. The terrain transitions from the northwestern corner of Porcupine Mountain State Park across the vast tracts of the Ottawa National Forest, where the higher elevations are capped by the Bergland Lookout Tower. The drainage patterns are defined by the northward-flowing Iron River and Mineral River, while small isolated outposts like Hoffman Camp and Krobath Cabin indicate the area's history as a working forest and mining district. Numerous Gravel Pits and an Artesian Well underscore the practical resource extraction and water management of the era, providing a detailed look at the infrastructure supporting remote Upper Peninsula settlements.
