1963 Map of Mc Carty River

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The St Louis River and its major tributaries define the water-logged landscape of southern St. Louis County in this 1960s survey. The confluence of the Whiteface River and the Little Whiteface River feeds into the main river channel, which winds through a territory marked by extensive wetlands like the Toivola Swamp. This area, spanning the townships of Van Buren, Floodwood, and Arrowhead, shows a distinct transition from the marshy lowlands to more elevated ground where Gravel Pits indicate localized extraction activity. The settlement pattern is sparse, constrained by the meandering river bends and the broad, open stretches of swamp, illustrating the challenges of the terrain in Northern Minnesota during this era of rural development.
