1957 Map of Comstock Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Cloquet Valley State Forest dominates this mid-century topographic study, revealing a St. Louis County landscape defined by its complex hydrology and timberland. The northern reach of the survey is anchored by the Whiteface River and its tributary, Tynjala Cr, while the southern portion is drained by the Us-Kab-Wan-Ka River. The terrain is remarkably saturated, featuring a dense network of interconnected basins including Comstock Lake, Lower Comstock Lake, and the isolated Rush Lake. Smaller water bodies like Hart Lake and Berle Lake are interspersed among the wetlands, connected by seasonal watercourses such as West Branch Bug Creek and Tower Creek. The lack of significant road infrastructure or named settlements during this period underscores the area's role as a protected wilderness and managed forest, where the drainage patterns of the Boulder Creek system and Coolidge Creek dictated the accessibility of the interior timber.
