1963 Map of Fourtown Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Superior National Forest defines this lake-land geography in northern Minnesota, where a complex network of glacial water bodies is divided by the St Louis Co Lake Co line. The terrain is characterized by large, interconnected waters such as Fourtown Lake and Horse Lake, interspersed with smaller basins like Fairy Lake and No-see-um Lake. The presence of several Campsite labels and the isolated Jeep Trail near the southern boundary suggests a landscape primary used for recreation and timber management in the early 1960s. To the southeast, the expansive Basswood Lake opens into Jackfish Bay, fed by the winding Spawn Creek. These waterways, including the narrow corridor of Mudro Lake and Sandpit Lake, provide a detailed record of the portage routes and natural drainage patterns that have historically shaped navigation through this wilderness area.
