1973 Map of Norman Lake SW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Pine Island State Forest dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where the Tamarac River winds through a complex terrain of wetlands and dense timber. This orthophotomap, based on 1969 aerial photography, reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the region, including the course of Shotley Brook and the presence of a dedicated Rice Field. The map captures a significant boundary where the Red Lake Indian Reservation meets the state forest, illustrating the intersection of sovereign tribal lands and public forestry. A network of Winter Trails provides the primary evidence of seasonal access through this interior country, which straddles the line between Beltrami and Koochiching counties. The visual data highlights the transition from forest canopies to the open water of the river system, documenting the environment as it existed in the early 1970s.
