About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern horizon of this coastal Houghton County landscape, where the Portage Lake Ship Canal cuts through to Portage Lake. This 1954 survey, updated with 1975 photorevisions, captures the rural Finnish heritage of the Keweenaw Peninsula through small agricultural and residential clusters like Liminga, Oskar, and Keranen. The map details a community infrastructure built around natural resources and public service, featuring numerous gravel pits and the County Hospital on the southern edge near Adams.
