1976 Map of Markham NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

St Louis River meanders through a landscape of timber and wetlands in this mid-1970s orthophoto survey. This aerial perspective reveals the intricate drainage patterns and vegetation of St. Louis County, captured just before the emergence of more modern development in the region. To the north, the expanse of Whitewater Lake sits amidst a patchwork of clearings and wooded parcels, showing the footprint of land use and natural water retention in the Iron Range hinterlands. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this orthophoto provides a literal view of the ground cover and hydrological network as it existed in 1976, offering a clear visual record of the shoreline and river bends prior to later environmental shifts.
