USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The timber and mining landscape of the Upper Peninsula is frozen in time on this mid-century survey, centered on the settlement of Michigamme. The map reveals a transition from heavy extraction to reforestation within the Michigamme State Forest, where numerous logging camps like Elmblad Camp and Sensenbrenner-Seldon Camp dot the northern woods. Transportation is dominated by the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad, which skirts the northern shore of Lake Michigamme near Imperial Heights.
