About this map

Alpha and the surrounding Iron County woodlands define this mid-century landscape, characterized by a complex network of glacial lakes and industrial rail spurs. The Chicago and Northwestern and the Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads intersect near the eastern edge, serving mining outposts like New Bristol Location and Dunn Location. These "locations" represent the clustered housing typical of Upper Peninsula mining communities of the era.
