1956 Map of Michigamme

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The northern reaches of the Copper Country State Forest and Escanaba River State Forest converge in this mid-century survey of the rugged Michigan backcountry. Centered on the sprawling waters of Lake Michigamme, the landscape is a complex network of glacial lakes and river systems, including the Peshekee River and the headwaters of the Huron River. Settlement is sparse, defined by the village of Michigamme and industrial pockets like Imperial Heights, while the interior is marked by isolated logging or sporting outposts such as Elmblad Camp, Ruona Camp, and Snyder Camp.
