1948 Map of Muggun Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The rocky Keweenaw Peninsula shoreline meets the cold waters of Lake Superior in this mid-century survey of the rugged copper country. The map highlights the essential industrial infrastructure required for the region's mining and residential centers, specifically the Tamarack Waterworks and Calumet Waterworks positioned right along the coast. These facilities were vital lifelines for the nearby communities of Allouez, Calumet, and Hancock. Inland, the terrain is carved by small but significant drainages like Muggun Creek, Gardeners Creek, and Brewery Cr, which descend toward the lake. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Keweenaw County and Houghton County, providing a clear view of how these administrative lines bisected the landscape during a period of post-war industrial transition.
