1981 Map of Snowbank Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness defines this northern landscape, which was updated in the mid-1980s to reflect a region governed by water and portage. The map centers on the expansive Snowbank Lake and Moose Lake, connected by numerous portage trails such as the Snowbank Trail and Old Pines Trail. These routes highlight the importance of paddle-and-carry transportation in the Superior National Forest, where few roads like Fernberg Road penetrate the interior. Human presence is concentrated at the Boy Scout Camp and various public access points, while the industrial past is marked by several Gravel Pits. The intricate hydrography includes the Kawishiwi River and specialized features like the Lake No 1 Dam, illustrating the managed nature of this wild drainage system during the late twentieth century.
