1976 Map of Markham SW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Whiteface Reservoir dominates this 1970s orthophotoquad, showing the intricate, island-rich shoreline of this man-made basin in northern Minnesota. Captured during a May 1976 aerial survey, the imagery reveals the sparsely settled landscape around the community of Markham. The terrain is characterized by the complex drainage patterns of the Whiteface River as it enters and exits the reservoir, surrounded by dense forest cover and wetlands. To the east, Linwood Lake appears as a distinct body of water separated from the main reservoir system. This map provides a precise photographic record of the region’s timber and water resources before further shoreline development or forest succession altered the visible landscape of St. Louis County.
