1971 Map of Pigeon Dam Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Lake Winnibigoshish dominates the southern boundary of this early 1970s orthophotomap, where the shoreline at Stony Point meets the dense forest of northern Minnesota. This composite image combines aerial photography with topographic contours, revealing a landscape defined by an intricate network of water bodies, including Round Lake and the connected chain of Upper Pigeon Lake, Middle Pigeon Lake, and Lower Pigeon Lake. The small settlement of Squaw Lake sits at the northern edge, serving as a gateway to the overlapping boundaries of the Chippewa National Forest, Blackduck State Forest, and Bowstring State Forest. Evidence of the local timber and recreation economy is visible in the network of forest roads and the presence of the Farley Hill Lookout Tower, while a remote Cem and a designated Winter Trail speak to the deep-woods character of this Itasca County region.
