1962 Map of Holyoke

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Nemadji State Forest dominates this borderland landscape where the high, wooded plateaus of eastern Minnesota meet the Wisconsin state line. The survey captures the quiet rural character of the early 1960s, centered on the unincorporated settlement of Holyoke and the remote rail siding at Harlis. The northern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the headwaters of the Nemadji River and its numerous tributaries, including Clear Brook and Anderson Brook, which cut through the timbered terrain. Further south, the map reveals a vast wetland environment punctuated by dozens of small, isolated bodies of water like Net Lake, Pickerel Lake, and Delong Lake. This period of the mid-20th century shows the area's transition away from its early timber and rail roots, as the Great Northern Grade and local Gravel Pits remain as physical markers of the region's industrial past.
