1949 Map of Radisson
USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Chippewa River corridor in Sawyer County serves as the backbone of this 1940s landscape, where the Chicago and North Western railroad connects the timber and agricultural settlements of Radisson, Ojibwa, and Winter. The map captures a significant indigenous and conservation footprint, prominently featuring the Court Oreilles Indian Reservation and the Chequamegon National Forest. The geography is defined by complex water systems, including the massive Chippewa Lake and the engineered waters held by the Winter Dam. Local institutional life is anchored by rural landmarks like the Bishop Bridge Sch, Riverview Sch, and the Pipestone Fire Tower, which provided essential oversight for the surrounding forest lands during the mid-twentieth century.
