1965 Map of Shell Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The glacial lakes and wetlands of Washburn and Barron Counties are extensively mapped here in the mid-1960s, showing a landscape defined by the Chicago and North Western rail line and numerous conservation areas. The city of Shell Lake serves as a primary hub, featuring its municipal airport and proximity to the waters surrounding Scout Island. To the south, the Yellow River and Bear Lake State Wildlife Area highlight a shift toward land management and recreation, while scattered rural institutions like Heart Lake Church and the Section Ten School provide a look at the area's mid-century social fabric.
