USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Lake Superior dominates the northern horizon of this mid-century survey, its deep waters meeting the rocky shoreline where the Ontonagon River flows into the lake. The village of Ontonagon serves as the focal point of the region, positioned at the river's mouth and featuring maritime and aviation infrastructure like the Lighthouse and Schuster Field. Moving inland, the landscape is defined by the dense woodlands of the Ottawa National Forest and Baraga State Forest, divided by the prominent Carp Lake Ridge.
