1958 Map of Laughing Fish Point

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Lake Superior dominates this mid-century survey, defining the rugged northern coastline of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The land area is concentrated along the southern edge of the sheet, where the prominent Laughing Fish Point and Shot Point reach into the cold waters. Much of this shoreline remains undeveloped and protected within the Hiawatha National Forest, showcasing a landscape of dense woods and northern drainages. The Laughing Whitefish R flows through the center of the landmass, crossing the border between Alger Co and Marquette Co. The map captures a moment in the late 1950s when this remote section of Chocolay Twp was characterized by its natural features and forestry boundaries rather than human settlement, offering a clear view of the pristine Lake Superior frontage before modern coastal development.
