1959 Map of Munker Island

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The international boundary between Ontario and Minnesota bisects the island-studded waters of Saganaga Lake, a landscape defined by the convergence of Quetico Provincial Park and the Superior National Forest. This late-1950s survey documents the northern terminus of the Gunflint Trail at the small settlement of Trails End. The map reveals an intricate network of waterways including the Sea Gull River, which connects the larger Sea Gull Lake to its northern neighbors. Significant landmarks such as Munker Island, American Point, and Englishman Island are clearly delineated, showing the character of this border region before further modern developments. Numerous smaller water bodies like Red Rock Lake and Hivernant Lake fill the interior, highlighting the complex glaciated geography of the Minnesota State Forest.
