1981 Map of Snowbank Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Snowbank Lake and the interconnected waters of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness dominate this northern landscape, which was revised and field checked in the late 1970s. The map illustrates the transition from accessible terrain near Fernberg Road to the primitive interior of the Superior National Forest. While small-scale industrial activity is evident at the Gravel Pits near Fernberg, the map focuses on the navigational complexities of the glacial chain lakes, including One Lake, Lake Two, and Lake Four. These bodies of water are joined by the Kawishiwi River and a network of portages. Numerous islands, such as Fire Island and Burnt Island, provide landmarks for travelers moving through Pickerel Bay and Wilderness Bay. Institutional presence is noted at the Boy Scout Camp on the shores of Moose Lake, serving as a jumping-off point for expeditions into the interior.
