About this map

Sturgeon River State Forest and the Superior National Forest converge in this northern landscape, which was primarily defined by its water and timber at the mid-century mark. The rural community of Florenton P O stands as a central point of settlement, supported by local landmarks like School No 14 and Pike Ch. This survey illustrates a quiet, transitional era where local life was organized around the Pike River and the northern reaches of the Sand River.
