1958 Map of Good Harbor Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Grand Marais and the surrounding North Shore landscape of the late 1950s are defined by the meeting of the Superior National Forest and the vast waters of Lake Superior. This survey documents a critical harbor of refuge and the emerging infrastructure of Cook County, featuring the Grand Marais Harbor with its Gaging Sta and a prominent Lookout Tower. The coastline follows a series of distinct geological features, from the prominence of Terrace Point to the small offshore Rock Island within Good Harbor Bay. Inland, the map captures the local community footprint through the Town Hall and the Poplar Grove Cem, while the course of the Fall River and Good Harbor Creek illustrate the drainage of the upland forest into the great lake.
