1952 Map of Pengilly

About this map

Iron ore extraction dominates the northern landscape of this survey, where a dense concentration of open pits and tailings ponds marks the Mesabi Range’s industrial footprint. Large-scale operations like the Patrick Mine, Hawkins Mine, and Snyder Mine are interconnected by the Burlington Northern and Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroads, which weave through the corporate limits of Nashwauk and the Cooley Village Boundary. In contrast to the industrial north, the southern portion of the map transitions into the lakelands of Swan Lake and Hart Lake, revealing the natural hydrography of the Swan River watershed.
