1953 Map of Fibre

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Hiawatha National Forest dominates this northern Michigan landscape, where the Sault Ste Marie and St Paul railroad serves as the primary corridor for movement through the timberlands. The small settlements of Fibre, Minneapolis, and Dryburg are positioned along this rail line, reflecting a development pattern typical of the Upper Peninsula’s historical logging and transport era. This mid-century survey, updated in the late 1970s, captures the territory before modern intensive development, showing the complex drainage systems of Pine River, Biscuit Creek, and Trout Creek. In the southern portion of the map, the boundary between Chippewa and Mackinac Counties cuts through dense woodland and the headwaters of Chub Creek, while a Croud Landing Strip south of Fibre provides a window into the remote aviation infrastructure of the period.
