1951 Map of Britt

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Duluth Winnipeg and Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line across this 1951 landscape, serving as a primary corridor through the Superior National Forest. Small concentrations of settlement are evident at Britt, where a Britt P O is located, and the northern siding of Forsman along the Rice River. This era shows a transition between active rail use and the established Railroad Grade paths that crisscross the wetlands and forests. Numerous small lakes, such as Jammer Lake and New Richmond Lake, are clustered near the Ranger Headquarters, while the expansive Big Rice Lake dominates the eastern edge of the survey. Local civic life is anchored by the Town Hall and the nearby Sandy Cem in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle.
