1950 Map of Mc Kinley

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The industrial corridor of the Mesabi Range is clearly defined in this 1950 field-checked study, where the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad snakes through the terrain to serve mining operations. Settlement patterns are concentrated around the extraction sites at McKinley, Elcor, and Belgrade, while the Laurentian Divide cuts across the center, separating the northern waters of the Pike River from the southern industrial landscape. The map captures a moment when mining infrastructure was deeply integrated into local geography, showing significant mine dumps and specialized sites like the Corsica Mine.
