1956 Map of Sioux Pine Island

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Trout Lake dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where the waters of the Superior National Forest meet the Minnesota State Forest. The map documents a complex archipelago of islands and peninsulas in the mid-1950s, characterized by the prominent Sioux Pine Island and Cramer Island centered in the northern half of the sheet. Further south, the intricate northern bays of Vermilion Lake are mapped, including West Bay and Portage Bay, separated from the northern waters by narrow necks of land and historical transit points like the Canfield Portage. The terrain is marked by specific navigational landmarks such as Norway Point and Windy Point, alongside smaller islets like the Five Sisters Islands and Steamboat Island. This survey provides a precise look at the transition between lake systems before modern recreational development altered the character of these shorelines.
