1976 Map of Markham NE

About this map

The St Louis River carves a sinuous path through the upper portion of this orthophotoquad, which captures the northern Minnesota landscape in the mid-1970s. This aerial imagery provides a direct look at the region’s wetland patterns, forest cover, and drainage networks as they appeared on May 15, 1976. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this photographic survey reveals the texture of the terrain and the specific distribution of vegetation across the St. Louis County area. The lack of dense development underscores the area's rural character, dominated by the natural hydrology of the winding river and the surrounding lowlands.
