About this map

The Minnesota National Forest defines this northern landscape just after the first world war, covering a network of significant glacial lakes and river systems. Small settlements like Max and Popple are positioned near these waterways, which served as vital corridors for the local economy. The upper reaches of Lake Winnibigoshish and the Big Fork River dominate the southern and eastern portions of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex hydrology of Itasca County. The survey records several rural schools located near Squaw Lake and Round Lake, reflecting the scattered community structure of the era. The presence of the 12th Standard Parallel North and various township boundaries like Alwood and Kinghurst provide a clear view of how the land was organized for forestry and settlement before the expansion of modern infrastructure.
