1960 Map of Brule Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Brule Lake dominates this 1960 landscape within the Superior National Forest and Minnesota State Forest. The complex waterway includes notable features like Fishbox Island, Jock Mock Bay, and Cone Bay, reflecting the intricate glacial topography of Cook County. To the northeast, the Misquah Hills rise above a dense network of smaller water bodies such as Winchell Lake and Davis Lake. On the southern shore, the Brule Lake Lookout Tower provides a fixed landmark overlooking the deep blue waters and the many islands, including Brule Island. This survey, field-checked just as the modern wilderness management era was taking shape, records a territory defined almost entirely by its hydrology and timber, with only unimproved dirt roads providing access to the interior.
