1948 Map of Fort Wilkins

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Copper Harbor serves as the focal point for this survey of Michigan's northernmost tip, where the rugged terrain of the Keweenaw Peninsula meets Lake Superior. The landscape is dominated by the historic military and maritime infrastructure that defined the region's 19th-century development, including the Copper Harbor Lighthouse and the grounds of Fort Wilkins State Park. The map reveals a transition from these early settlements to the interior's industrial past, notably at the Copper Mine (Abandoned) located south of the harbor.
