1959 Map of Ogishkemuncie Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Ogishkemuncie Lake and the complex waterway of Knife Lake dominate this 1959 survey of the Minnesota wilderness. Situated within the Superior National Forest and Minnesota State Forest, the landscape is a dense network of glacial basins and portage routes. Notable water bodies such as Kekekabic Lake, Jasper Lake, and the South Arm are documented with depth curves provided by the Minnesota Department of Conservation, offering rare data on the underwater topography of these remote basins. The map illustrates the boundary between Lake and Cook counties as it cuts through the forest. Beyond the extensive water system, the map identifies numerous smaller features like Eddy Lake, Nave Lake, and Kekekabic Ponds, connected by a series of primitive Trails. The absence of developed roads emphasizes the character of this region as it was preserved mid-century, prior to later wilderness management changes.
