1968 Map of Daley Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Kabetogama Lake dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where a dense network of islands and deep bays defines the shoreline. The northern section is marked by the Shoepack Lookout Tower overlooking Shoepack Lake and Little Shoepack Lake, while the southern half is preserved as part of the Irwin State Forest. This survey captures the wilderness character of the region in the late 1960s, showing a reliance on seasonal transport via a Winter Trail and several Winter Roads that cut through the woods and cross frozen waterways. The lake's irregular coastline is punctuated by named features like Nashata Point and Daley Bay, with dozens of small islands such as Sugarbush Island and Round Bear Island scattered across the water. The presence of a Gravel Pit near Daley Brook suggests small-scale local resource extraction amidst the vast forested terrain.
