1955 Map of Ralph NE

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Sturgeon River State Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, where the landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the West Branch Escanaba River and the North Branch Ford River. This 1955 field-checked survey captures a terrain largely dedicated to timber and conservation, notably devoid of established townsites but marked by essential backcountry infrastructure. The Escanaba River Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the forest canopy, while the Wild Run Landing Field provides a remote aviation link to the region. Transportation is anchored by the E & L S railroad corridor, which skirts the swampy lowlands near Horseshoe Lake and Mud Lake. The boundary between Marquette Co and Dickinson Co cuts across the northern reaches, illustrating the administrative divisions within this densely wooded watershed.
