1964 Map of Stingy Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

George Washington State Forest and Sturgeon River State Forest dominate this mid-century landscape on the border of Itasca and St. Louis counties. The map captures a largely undeveloped northern wilderness defined by a dense network of glacial water bodies, including Stingy Lake, Lake Twentyfour, and the elongated Moose Lake. This 1964 survey reveals the industrial and recreational character of the region during the 1960s, showing a reliance on natural resources as evidenced by several Gravel Pits and timber management areas. Water flows through the center of the sheet via Day Brook, while the East River and Rock Creek drain the southern marshes. Human impact is restricted to a few unpaved roads and a single Trail cutting through the northeast corner of the Superior National Forest, preserving a view of the Iron Range backcountry before modern expansion.
