1967 Map of Johnson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Superior National Forest and Kabetogama State Forest meet in this 1967 survey of a water-dominated landscape in northern Minnesota. The complex hydrology of the region is centered on Johnson Lake, surrounded by a network of smaller basins like Mukooda Lake and Franklin Lake. To the south, the Vermilion River snakes through the terrain, passing through the Vermilion Gorge before reaching the lower elevations of Crane Lake. The map illustrates the specialized transport methods required for this wilderness, marking an overland Portage used to navigate between water bodies. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by a Gravel Pit, while various benchmarks like BM 1226 provide precise vertical control across the uneven lake country.
