1959 Map of Munker Island

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Saganaga Lake dominates this international border landscape, where the waters of northern Minnesota meet Ontario at the edge of Quetico Provincial Park. The 1959 field survey illustrates a complex network of glacial islands and waterways including Munker Island, Englishman Island, and Gold Island. This wilderness area, protected within the Superior National Forest, shows very little human development, save for the distinct outpost at Trails End near the Sea Gull River. The map provides an intricate look at the hydrology of the Boundary Waters, tracing the connections between Sea Gull Lake, Alpine Lake, and Red Rock Lake. Notable landmarks like American Point and Rocky Point define the rugged shoreline, while interior lakes such as Hivernant Lake and Grandpa Lake are set against the wooded terrain of the Minnesota State Forest.
