1963 Map of Echo Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Echo Lake and its surrounding wilderness define this section of the Iron Range region along the international border. The landscape is characterized by the complex drainage of the Echo River and the Hunting Shack River, winding through the densely wooded Superior National Forest and Kabetogama State Forest. This survey captures the area as recreational infrastructure was maturing, noting the Echo Lake Campground and a Boat Ramp on the lake's western shore. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, where several portages and the Echo Trail provide the primary means of navigation through the marshy terrain. Smaller water bodies like Herriman Lake and Knute Lake are connected by a network of streams including Hanson Creek and Camp 29 Creek, illustrating the intricate hydrology of northern St. Louis County.
