1952 Map of Ishpeming

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The iron ore mining hubs of Ishpeming and Negaunee anchor this mid-century survey of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, revealing a landscape defined by industrial extraction. Large Mine Dumps and active operations like the Empire Mine and Athens Mine surround the urban centers, while the Tilden Mines and National Mine mark the rugged interior. These industrial footprints are countered by a high density of named water bodies, including Lake Angeline, Goose Lake, and Lake Gribben.
