1952 Map of Pengilly

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Industrial iron mining and vast glacial lakes define this 1952 landscape in the Mesabi Range. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the massive open-pit operations of the Halobe Mine, Hawkins Mine, and Patrick Mine, accompanied by extensive tailings ponds and protective levees. These industrial sites are flanked by the residential hubs of Nashwauk, Cooley, and Pengilly, where the Cooley Post Office served as a local anchor. The Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad snakes through the terrain, providing the essential transport link for the ore extracted from the earth.
