About this map

Minnesota State Forest lands and the edge of the Superior National Forest define this 1950 topography of the iron-rich northern timberlands. The landscape is dominated by the Mesaba Range rising in the south, where the Missabe and Iron Range railroad snakes through the hills to serve the region's industrial core. A network of glacial lakes including Isaac Lake, Kaunonen Lake, and Island Lake are scattered across the terrain, connected by the winding path of the Embarrass River. Local heritage is anchored by the Waasa area, where a lonely Town Hall and the Armanda Cem and Argo Cem suggest the small, community-centered settlements that persisted in the shadow of the great northern forests and iron mines.
