1969 Map of Ericsburg SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Little Fork River meanders sharply through this northern Koochiching County landscape, defining the topography with its complex oxbows and seasonal flow patterns. Recorded during the late 1960s, the map reveals a remote wilderness terrain where transportation was dictated by the seasons. The presence of numerous Winter Trails and the lack of permanent roads across large marshy sections suggest a landscape that was most accessible when the ground was frozen. These trails connect the winding courses of Beaver Brook and Ester Brook through the dense forest. While the land appears largely unsettled, small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by several Gravel Pits located near the riverbanks, likely supporting the maintenance of the few all-weather routes in the region. The Rapids along the river further highlight the natural, unchannelized state of the waterways during this era.
