1956 Map of Pequaywan Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Cloquet Valley State Forest dominates this landscape in St. Louis County, where complex hydrological networks define the north woods. The Pequaywan Lake basin is the central feature, surrounded by dozens of smaller water bodies including Moose Lake, Santa Claus Lake, and Wigwam Lake. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns where the West Branch Cloquet River and the Little Cloquet River converge. The topography reveals a region of low-lying marshes and glacial depressions, largely within the civil townships of Ault and Alden. These 1950s records are particularly valuable for documenting the original shorelines and water levels of lakes like Marion Lake and Glenn Lake before modern development or environmental shifts altered their profiles. The map provides a detailed view of the remote road network and the isolation of these northern waters during the mid-century.
