1948 Map of Lake Medora

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Brockway Mountain Drive traces the high ridgeline of this Keweenaw Peninsula landscape, offering a view of the post-war development in Michigan's Copper Country. The map highlights the coastal community of Copper Harbor, situated near Ft Wilkins State Park and Lake Fanny Hooe, while the inland terrain is defined by the massive Lake Medora. This mid-century survey illustrates a region transitioning from its mining roots toward a recreational economy, as evidenced by the establishment of Keweenaw County Park and Hebard State Park. The southern portion of the sheet descends toward Bete Grise and the marshy edges of Lac La Belle, showing the complex hydrology of the Montreal River as it winds toward the rocky shorelines of Lake Superior.
