About this map

Lake Superior dominates the southeastern boundary of this map, where the coastal communities of French River and Clifton sit along the shoreline. This contemporary survey illustrates the dense network of county roads and residential throughways that connect the lakefront to the higher elevations inland. The Duluth city limits extend into the southwestern corner, reflecting the outward growth of the regional hub.

Several waterways, including the Talmadge River, Lester River, and Big Sucker Cr, descend toward the lake through a landscape of varying terrain. Recreational and transit corridors are well-defined, ranging from the scenic Congdon Blvd and Co St Aid Hwy 61 near the water to the inland C J Ramstad/North Shore State Trl. Local history is anchored by sites like the Normanna Cem, which serves as a quiet landmark in the northwestern interior.
