1951 Map of Eckerman

About this map

The Duluth South Shore and Atlantic Railroad cuts a straight path through the heart of the Upper Peninsula, connecting the lumber and sporting camps of the eastern hardwood forests. Centered on the junction at Hulbert, the landscape is defined by the expansive wetlands of the Tahquamenon River and its numerous branches, including the West Branch and South Branch Hendrie River. The presence of several private clubs and lodges, such as the Maple Ridge Club and No Doe Hunting Club, signifies the area's mid-century transition into a premier hunting and fishing destination. To the north, the Tahquamenon Bay shoreline reveals the early infrastructure of the Hiawatha National Forest, while the Eckerman Lookout Tower and a local Fish Hatchery mark the state's active management of these wild lands.
