1946 Map of Chassell
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Houghton and Hancock anchor the northern reaches of this map, situated on the banks of Portage Lake in the heart of Michigan’s Copper Country. The landscape is defined by its deep mining heritage, with sites like the Isle Royale Mine and the Old Superior Mine marking the transition from industrial extraction to more diverse land use. Institutional history is prominent at the Michigan College of Mining and Technology, while community centers like Hurontown, Dodgeville, and Chassell trace the settlement patterns that followed the mineral veins and the Soo Line railroad.
