1960 Map of Devil Track Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Devil Track Lake dominates this portion of the Superior National Forest, serving as a central hub for Northwoods transportation and recreation. The map illustrates a landscape transitioning from the mid-century to the late 1980s, where the Grand Marais-Devil Track Airport and the specialized Sky Port Seaplane Base on the eastern shore highlight the area's reliance on aviation for access. Inland, the North Shore State Trail winds through a dense network of water bodies, including Pendant Lake, Digit Lake, and Junco Lake. The presence of numerous Gravel Pit sites suggests the ongoing maintenance of forest roads like those near Bally Creek. Elevations rise toward the south, culminating at Murphy Mountain and the prominent Sawtooth Bluff, providing a clear view of the topographic character of the Arrowhead region before it drops toward Lake Superior.
