1967 Map of Johnson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Vermilion River and its dramatic landscape define this portion of St. Louis County, where the river flows through the steep-walled Vermilion Gorge towards the southern edge of Voyageurs National Park. This map shows a complex network of glacial lakes and portage trails within the Kabetogama State Forest and Superior National Forest. Land use in the late 1960s was primarily recreational and conservation-focused, though a Gravel Pit south of Franklin Lake suggests localized industrial activity. Portions of Johnson Lake and Mukooda Lake dominate the northern terrain, while the Vermilion Falls Picnic Area provides a specific point of access to the river's unique features. The inclusion of several Portage labels indicates the historical and ongoing importance of these routes for navigating the interconnected waterways between Crane Lake and Browns Bay.
