1965 Map of Shagawa Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Ely sits at the edge of a massive aquatic network in the mid-1960s, serving as a gateway to the Superior National Forest and surrounding state timberlands. The landscape is defined by the deep indentations of Burnt Side Lake, where dozens of named landforms like Waters Island and Honeymoon Island break the water's surface. This era captures the region's industrial backbone through the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad, which skirts the southern shore of Shagawa Lake.
