1968 Map of Frontenac Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Schoolcraft River meanders through a dense corridor of wetlands and forests within the Paul Bunyan State Forest, defining the northern Minnesota wilderness of the late 1960s. The landscape is punctuated by numerous glacial lakes, including the sprawling Lake Plantagenet to the north and the centrally located Frontenac Lake. This survey illustrates the early management of the region's natural resources, shown by the designated Rockwood State Wildlife Management Areas and the placement of a Lookout Tower and Ranger Station. Human activity is concentrated around modest infrastructure like the Townhall and seasonal sites such as Camp Thunderbird. The presence of Alcohol Creek and Dead Creek feeding into the river system suggests a complex drainage network typical of the Hubbard County lakelands during this era of conservation and forest development.
