1967 Map of Hugo

About this map

The Northern Pacific railroad corridor anchors the western landscape of this Washington County survey, running through the settlements of Hugo and Weston. This era in the late 1960s reflects a transitional period for the region, where established lakeside recreation areas like the Veterans Rest Camp and Campfire Girls Camp sit alongside active extraction sites like the Gravel Pits north of Rice Lake. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial water bodies, from the large Oneka Lake to the more secluded Lynch Lake and Goggins Lake in the southeast.
