1969 Map of Ponsford

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

White Earth Indian Reservation lands dominate this northern Minnesota landscape, where the settlements of Ponsford and Pine Point serve as local hubs. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands, most notably the expansive Shell Lake and Toad Lake, which feature detailed depth soundings compiled by the Minnesota Department of Conservation. This late-1960s survey records the cultural footprint of the area through sites like Emmanuel Ch and the Grand Medicine Cem near Aspinwall Lake. To the south and east, the Smoky Hills State Forest and the Linbom Lake State Wildlife Management Area represent significant conservation tracts, while the presence of the Shellman Dam near the small community of Shellman illustrates the management of local waterways like the Shell River.
