1978 Map of Littlefork
USGS Topo · Published 1994About this map
The confluence of the Little Fork River and the Big Fork River anchors this Northwoods landscape, where timber and water resources defined the regional economy during the late 1970s. The Minnesota Dakota and Western RR cuts through the territory, linking the river settlements of Littlefork and Big Falls. Large tracts of protected land dominate the map, including the Smoke Bear State Forest and portions of Voyageurs National Park along the shores of Kabetogama Lake. A network of lookout towers, such as Happy Land Lookout Tower and Dentaybow Lookout Tower, underscores the importance of forest fire monitoring in this heavily wooded area. Further southeast, the Nett Lake Indian Reservation borders the expansive Nett Lake, illustrating the intersection of state, federal, and tribal lands in the Rainy River basin.
