About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern edge of this copper country survey, where the rugged shoreline at Fourteenmile Point and its lighthouse give way to a landscape defined by timber and mineral extraction. The interior is densely dotted with logging outposts including Abbott-Fox Camp, Hilger Camp, and numbered sites like Camp 13, suggesting a period of active forestry across the Baraga and Greenland State Forests.
