2011 Map of Ironwood

About this map

The Montreal River defines the landscape of this border region, carving through the iron-rich terrain that gave rise to the neighboring communities of Hurley, Wisconsin, and Ironwood, Michigan. The map illustrates a developed corridor where industrial heritage meets modern recreation, anchored by the Mount Zion Ski Hill and the extensive Gile Flowage to the southwest. Distinct residential pockets like Newport Location, Norrie, and Jessieville reflect the historic settlement patterns of the Gogebic Range. Local history and genealogy are preserved at sites such as Riverside Cemetery and Saint Marys Cemetery, while the Gogebic County Fairgrounds serves as a central community landmark. Along the river, natural features like Peterson Falls and Interstate Falls remain significant points of interest amidst a network of rural routes and established city streets.
