1959 Map of Pine Lake East

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Canada United States international boundary cuts across the waters of Moose Lake and North Fowl Lake in this 1959 survey of northeastern Minnesota. The landscape is defined by the high-relief topography of the Grand Portage area, where a network of narrow, deep lakes like McFarland Lake and East Pike Lake fill the valleys between prominent ridges. The map illustrates the overlapping jurisdictions of the Superior National Forest and the Minnesota State Forest, showing a wilderness area managed for conservation and resource extraction. Significant water features including the Royal River and Portage Brook connect smaller basins like Royal Lake and John Lake, tracing the natural drainage patterns toward the larger South Fowl Lake. This study documents the region's hydrography and terrain just as the Minnesota Department of Conservation was refining its depth charts for these remote border waters.
