1945 Map of Namekagon Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Namekagon Lake and its intricate shoreline of bays and points dominate the northern landscape of this Chequamegon region as it appeared in the mid-1940s. The settlement at Bergundy and the Lost Land Lake Club serve as early recreational markers in an area still heavily defined by the National Forest boundary and active resource management. The map reveals a network of fire roads and trails, such as T Tr 92 L Trunk, alongside localized infrastructure including the West Fork Fire Tower and the Sawyer CCC Camp in the southeast. Education and industry are evidenced by the Spider Lake Sch and water control structures like Tiger Cat Dam and West Fork Dam. The intricate hydrography of the Namekagon River and numerous smaller basins like Ghost Lake and Mumms Bay illustrate a wilderness being mapped for conservation and early tourism.
