1970 Map of Littlefork

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Little Fork River meanders dramatically across this landscape, forming tight oxbows and loops that define the northern Minnesota wilderness near the Canadian border. This 1970 orthophotomap combines aerial photography with topographic data, revealing the dense forest and marshland patterns surrounding the settlement of Littlefork. The infrastructure of the era is clearly visible, from the Burlington Northern railroad line cutting through the terrain to the Littlefork Airport and local Radio Tower. Religious and community life is anchored at the Northwood Chapel, while the river's utility is monitored by a Gaging Station. The map captures the remote character of the region, where a Winter Trail provides seasonal access across wetlands that are otherwise impassable, reflecting the specialized transportation needs of Koochiching County.
