1951 Map of Makinen

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Makinen serves as a focal point for this 1950s survey of the Iron Range region, where the landscape is a dense network of wetlands and interconnected waterways. The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the Cloquet Valley State Forest, a vast wooded area that provides cover for the headwaters of the Paleface River and the winding Water Hen Creek. The map details the transition from small rural settlements to the surrounding wilderness, with a prominent Town Hall and several scattered Gravel Pits indicating local infrastructure and resource extraction during this era.
