1959 Map of Conners Island

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Saganaga Lake and the intricate waterways of the Minnesota-Ontario border dominate this survey, which captures the lake-country landscape as it appeared in the late 1950s. The international boundary winds through the Granite River and Maraboeuf Lake, delineating the edge of Superior National Forest. This region, documented just as the modern preservation of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness was taking shape, shows a landscape defined by water and portage routes rather than roads. The Gunflint Trail provides a singular point of terrestrial access near Sea Gull Lake in the southwest corner. Named features like Conners Island and Oskenonton Island illustrate the archipelago character of these northern waters, where the Cook Co Thunder Bay District line meets the Canadian wilderness.
