1964 Map of Mt. Ashwabay

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Mt Ashwabay rises above the timbered interior of the Bayfield Peninsula, defining the watershed where several river systems originate. During the mid-1960s, this landscape was characterized by a dense network of watercourses including the Little Sioux River, Sand River, and Bark Creek, alongside numerous active Gravel Pit operations that speak to the local industry and infrastructure of the era. To the east, the drainage from Sultz Swamp feeds into the North Fork Pikes Creek, eventually reaching the shoreline of Lake Superior. The transition between the townships of Russell, Bayfield, and Bayview is marked by these natural boundaries, providing a clear view of the regional topography before modern development altered the upland drainage patterns and forest cover.
