1959 Map of Pine Lake East

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Moose Lake and the international boundary between Ontario and Minnesota define the northern edge of this wilderness landscape, documented through 1959 field checks and 1970s revisions. This portion of the Superior National Forest is characterized by a series of elongated glacial lakes and connecting waterways, including John Lake, McFarland Lake, and Little John Lake, which drain through the Royal River toward the North Fowl Lake basin. The terrain is notably focused on the Grand Portage corridor, where the historic movement of goods and travelers across the height of land is reflected in features like Portage Brook. High-elevation water bodies such as Highlander Lake and Devilfish Lake sit tucked within the ridges, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Thunder Bay District Spillway region.
