1965 Map of Ely
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The iron mining town of Ely serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, showing a landscape defined by the intersection of industrial extraction and the burgeoning gateway to the wilderness. The Pioneer Mine and various Gravel Pits mark the local economy, while the presence of the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad illustrates the critical logistical link for ore transport. To the north, the town of Winton sits at the head of Fall Lake, positioned between the concentrated urban grid of Ely and the extensive waters of the Superior National Forest.
