About this map

Little Bay De Noc defines the southern edge of this 1932 field survey, where the Rapid River and Whitefish River converge into the bay's northern reaches. The settlement of Rapid River serves as the central hub, situated at the junction of the Minneapolis Sault Ste Marie railroad and major early motor routes including U S Highway No 2 and 41. This era captures the transition from a rail-dependent economy to one increasingly shaped by highway access, with small crossroads like Maplewood and Masonville dotting the landscape.
