1972 Map of Grant Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Mississippi Headwaters State Forest dominates this northern landscape, following the winding course of the upper Mississippi River as it flows south through the marshy lowlands of Jones and Grant Valley. This early 1970s orthophotomap provides a rare visual synthesis of the region's complex hydrology, where Grant Creek drains into the larger river system through a network of smaller basins like Rice Lake and Bootleg Lake. In the northern section, Roglien Memorial Park sits on the shores of Grant Lake, which is overlooked by a prominent Lookout Tower. The map documents the interface of managed timberlands and recreation at the transition from the headwaters forest to the Paul Bunyan State Forest further south. Local industry is visible in the scattered Gravel Pit locations, while the presence of the Beltrami Co Hubbard Co line indicates the administrative division of this water-rich territory.
