1955 Map of Schroeder

About this map

Lake Superior dominates the southeastern edge of this coastal survey, where the settlement of Schroeder and the industrial hub of Taconite Harbor overlook the water. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the timber and mining industries, evidenced by the Erie Mining Company Railroad cutting through the interior. These rails run south of a network of named waterways including Fredenberg Creek and the Two Island River, which navigate the dense woodlands of the Superior National Forest and Finland State Forest. To the north, the terrain becomes increasingly complex with features like Stumble Creek and Heartbreak Creek feeding into the larger Cross River. Small inland bodies of water such as Dyers Lake and Dogwood Lake are noted among the elevations, while offshore landmarks like Gull Island and Bear Island mark the transition into the open lake.
