About this map

Mississagi Provincial Forest dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century survey, a wilderness landscape defined by a dense network of water bodies like Wakomata Lake and Matinenda Lake. Along the northern shore of the North Channel, the industrial and transport corridor of the Canadian Pacific railway connects settlements from Bruce Mines and Thessalon to the mining hub of Elliot Lake. This era shows the rugged transition from the forest economy to the mid-century mining boom, centered around the rocky terrain of the La Cloche Mtns.
