1965 Map of Kangas Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

White Iron Lake and the South Kawishiwi River dominate this portion of the Superior National Forest, where water levels are carefully tracked by a Gaging Station and reservoir pools. The map documents a landscape defined by the drainage patterns between Fall Lake and the expansive Birch Lake, which features the Birch Lake Campground and Birch Lake Cem near its northern shores. Transportation and local infrastructure are represented by the Ely Municipal Airport and a strategically placed Boat Ramp on White Iron Lake. This 1965 survey, updated with 1980s revisions, illustrates the intricate boundary between Bear Island and Beargrease Island, reflecting the area's transition into a managed recreation and conservation zone within the Superior National Forest.
