1959 Map of Kekekabic Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The International Boundary bisects the north-central portion of this survey, dividing the Quetico Provincial Park of Ontario from the Superior National Forest in Minnesota. This mid-century record documents the transition of this area into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, preserving a landscape of interconnected glacial lakes and dense woodland. Prominent water bodies such as Kekekabic Lake, Knife Lake, and Fraser Lake dominate the terrain, reflecting the region's importance to early canoe routes and conservation efforts. The Kekekabic Lookout Tower stands as a rare vertical landmark in a territory otherwise defined by low-relief portages and rocky shorelines. The map also captures the topography of Hunter Island and numerous smaller basins like Spoon Lake and Thomas Lake, detailing the intricate hydrologic network before modern wilderness management protocols were fully established.
