1960 Map of South Fowl Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

South Fowl Lake and North Fowl Lake dominate the western portion of this border survey, marking the international boundary between the United States and Canada. This 1960s landscape, later revised in the 1980s, reveals the wild waterway network where the Pigeon River and Arrow River flow through the deep woods of the Superior National Forest and Grand Portage State Forest. The geography here is defined by hydraulic movement, featuring Whitefish River and Stump Brook, with noted Rapids indicating the challenging passage along the historic voyageur routes. A solitary Gravel Pit near the northern reaches of the Arrow River stands as one of the few signs of industrial activity in an area primarily dedicated to forest management and international boundary monitoring. Researchers can trace the precise contours of the Thunder Bay District and Cook County line as it follows the riverbed through these remote northwoods.
