1955 Map of Ned Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The East Branch Net River and its numerous tributaries, including Tracy Creek and Fourteen Creek, carve through the dense forests of the Baraga State Forest and Iron Range State Forest in the mid-1950s. This interior landscape of Iron and Baraga counties is defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and wetlands, such as Ned Lake and Spies Lake, where the lack of formal settlements suggests an economy focused on timber and outdoor recreation. Evidence of earlier industrial activity is present in the form of an Old Railroad Grade and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific rail line, which supported the region's logging and mining operations.
