1955 Map of Forest Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The sprawling lakes of Chisago County define the landscape of this mid-1950s survey, where interconnected waterways like Green Lake and Sunrise Lake shaped the early growth of nearby towns. Lindstrom, Chisago City, and Center City are shown at a point of post-war stability, situated along the Northern Pacific railroad line that once drove the region's economy. The map captures the recreational and conservation character of the era, from the Girl Scout Camp on the shores of Green Lake to the extensive Carlos Avery State Game Refuge and Public Hunting Grounds in the west.
