1956 Map of Sagola

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The timber and rail corridors of the Upper Peninsula define this mid-century landscape, centered on the intersection of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad and the Chicago and North Western Railway. The small community of Channing serves as a central hub, flanked by the Channing Cem and the nearby operations of Sagola and Kiernan. The terrain is characterized by extensive forest management areas including the Michigamme State Forest and the Sturgeon River State Forest, where early industrial footprints like the Mansfield Location and McMillan Camp sit alongside large-scale water features like the Michiganamme Reservoir. Hydrological control is evident at Way Dam and the Hemlock Falls Dam Spillway, while the Silver Lake Lookout Tower and Michigamme Mtn provide the primary elevation markers across these wooded Iron Range townships.
