1948 Map of Fort Wilkins

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Old Fort Wilkins stands as a prominent sentinel on this 1948 survey of the Keweenaw Peninsula, situated on the narrow strip of land between Copper Harbor and Lake Fanny Hooe. The map captures the rugged northern edge of Michigan where industrial history and wilderness meet, preserved within Fort Wilkins State Park. A notable marker of the region's mineral past is the Copper Mine (Abandoned) located south of the main settlement area, reflecting the boom-and-bust cycle of the Copper Country's early mining era.
