1962 Map of Churchill Lake

About this map

Churchill Lake and Eagle Lake form the core of this North Woods survey, linked by the complex Thoroughfare water system. The map reveals the area's industrial past through remnants like the Abandoned Tramway at the State Forest Service Camp and an Old Railroad Grade near Chamberlain Lake. These features, along with an Abandoned Submarine Cable, point to a specialized infrastructure designed to navigate this lacustrine landscape before the expansion of recreational sites like Crows Nest Campground or the Zeigler Campground.
