1960 Map of Gunflint Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The international boundary between Canada and the United States defines the northern edge of this wilderness landscape, bisecting the expansive waters of Gunflint Lake and Magnetic Lake. Captured from 1958 aerial photography and field checked in 1959-60, the map illustrates a complex network of glacial lakes and waterways within the Superior National Forest and Minnesota State Forest. The rugged terrain of the Iron Range is evidenced by steep contour lines surrounding water bodies like Loon Lake and Tucker Lake.
