1972 Map of Chain Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Glacial lakes and wetlands define the borderlands of Rusk Co Chippewa Co in this early 1970s topographic study. The landscape is dominated by an intricate network of waterways including the Axhandle Lakes and the central passage known as The Narrows. At the northern edge, Two Bear Camp serves as a remote outpost near Two Bear Lake, while the Stang Lookout Tower provides a strategic high point overlooking the dense woods of Big Bend and Sampson. The presence of the State Wildlife Management Area and Morris-Erickson County Park indicates a region deeply committed to conservation and outdoor recreation. A small Gravel Pit and a local Townhall mark the sparse human footprint among named roads like Sugar Lake Road and Plummer Road.
