1971 Map of Pomroy

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Big Fork River meanders through a dense patchwork of timberlands and wetlands at the intersection of Northern Minnesota's major protected wilderness areas. This orthophotomap, based on 1969 and 1970 aerial photography, reveals the remote settlement of Pomroy and the nearby Mission Ch. The landscape is dominated by the overlapping boundaries of the Pine Island State Forest, Big Fork State Forest, and the Chippewa National Forest. The presence of the Winter Road Trail and the Winter Road River suggests the seasonal nature of transportation and logging in this swampy terrain. Hydrological features like Wirt Lake, Spruce Lake, and Noma Lake are clearly visible against the wooded backdrop, alongside named landmarks such as Robbs Rapids on the river. This specific edition provides a clear record of the area's mid-century road network and forest management during a period of active resource utilization.
