About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern horizon of this coastal survey, where the rugged shoreline of the Upper Peninsula meets the Wisconsin Michigan border. This 1940s landscape is defined by the Montreal River, which serves as a natural boundary between the two states, punctuated by a Dam and Power Plant that suggest the era's developing hydroelectric infrastructure. The coastal settlement of Saxon Harbor and its adjacent Saxon Harbor Park sit near the mouth of several north-flowing drainages, including Parker Creek and Carpenter Branch. Inland, the map reveals a transition from the established La Pointe Indian Reservation to the surveyed townships of Kimball and Saxon, where the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad and the C & N W line provided critical transportation links for timber and local industry.
