1940 Map of Central

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Eagle Harbor serves as the primary coastal anchor on this Keweenaw Peninsula survey, where the Eagle Harbor L H stands watch over the rugged shoreline of Lake Superior. The interior transition from the rocky coast to the highlands is marked by the winding courses of Central Creek and Jacobs Creek, feeding into a landscape of dense timber and historical mining interest. The settlement of Central, located near the Central Fire Tower, appears alongside an Old Grade, indicating the specialized transportation networks required by the copper industry in the early twentieth century.
