1971 Map of Lake Ada

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Glacial lakes and wetlands dominate this portion of the northern woods where Ponto Lake and the massive Lake Ada provide a central focus for the region's geography. The map captures the small community of Pontoria and the lakeside development at Chickamaw Beach as they appeared in the early 1970s. Historical local markers like the Ponto Lake Cem and the Townhall near Lizotte Lake offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in Barclay and Gould townships. The landscape is interconnected by a complex drainage system including Blind Creek and Lizzie Creek, alongside more isolated features like Deadman Lake and Jail Lake. Evidence of local industry is sparse but visible through a scattered Sandpit and Gravel Pit, while a Winter Trail in the southeast suggests the seasonal nature of transport and recreation in the Cass County backcountry.
