1968 Map of Milaca NE

About this map

Rum River State Forest and the Mille Lacs State Wildlife Management Area dominate this section of Central Minnesota, showcasing a landscape defined by extensive wetlands and conservation lands. The survey captures the area at a time when local landmarks like the Mille Lacs Lookout Tower and the North Fork Sch anchored the rural community. Numerous Gravel Pits are scattered across the terrain, indicating the local extraction industry during the late 1960s. The hydrography is characterized by the winding West Fork Rum River and the Groundhouse River, alongside significant water bodies such as Cranberry Lake and Mikkelson Pool. Evidence of community life persists through labels for a Townhall and a Boy Scout Camp near the Mille Lacs and Kanabec County line.
