1956 Map of Split Rock Point

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Split Rock Lighthouse stands as a prominent sentinel over the North Shore of Lake Superior in this mid-century survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the elevated timberlands of Silver Creek and Beaver Bay to the rocky shoreline punctuated by Corundum Point and Split Rock Point. The map documents a rugged coastal economy transitioning into a recreational one, as evidenced by the establishment of Split Rock Lighthouse State Park and Gooseberry Falls State Park along the Lake Superior shore.
