1960 Map of Kelso Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this wilderness area, where a complex network of glacial lakes and waterways defines the landscape. The Frost River flows through the northern reaches, connecting Seal Lake and Bologna Lake in a pattern characteristic of the region's interconnected canoe routes. To the south, the Pat Bayle State Forest begins near the base of Kelso Mountain, a prominent terrain feature that overlooks the surrounding basin. This 1960 field-checked survey, produced in collaboration with the State of Minnesota Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Commission, provides detailed depth curves for several bodies of water, including Mesaba Lake and Louise Lake. These measurements offer a precise look at the underwater topography as it was understood in the mid-20th century. Named landmarks such as Hub Lake and Fente Lake dot the dense forest, which is accessible only via primitive Trails.
