1955 Map of Champion

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Michigan State Forest land and complex iron and gold mining districts define this mid-1950s landscape in the Upper Peninsula. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the rail-and-industry corridor of the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic and the Chicago and North Western railroads, which served mining hubs like Champion, Diorite, and Beacon. Local history is deeply etched into the terrain through specific workings such as the Michigan Gold Mine, Chase Mine, and the Barnes and Hecker Mine.
