1955 Map of Dark Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Alango Hall stands as a focal point in the northern portion of this St. Louis County landscape, marking a localized pocket of community activity amidst a vast network of protected timberlands and waterways. The area is defined by the intersection of the Sturgeon River State Forest and the Superior National Forest, where the Sturgeon River and the Dark River carve through the terrain. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is present in the form of a Gravel Pit and a designated Heliport near the water. The map traces an intricate drainage system including Paavola Creek, Leander Creek, and West Knuckey Creek, which feed into prominent water bodies like Great Dark Lake and Knuckey Lake. This mid-century survey, updated in the 1980s, highlights the enduring character of the Iron Range periphery where forest management and glacial lakes dominate the geography.
