1955 Map of Iron Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Mining operations and hydroelectric power define this mid-century landscape along the Michigan Wisconsin border. Industrial heritage is evident in the dense concentration of iron works, including the Chapin Mine, West Chapin Mine, and Pewabic Mine, which flank the northern edge of Iron Mountain. The Menominee River serves as both a political boundary and an energy source, controlled by the Twin Falls Dam and Big Quinnesec Dam.
