1963 Map of Stockton Island

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Stockton Island dominates this mid-century survey of the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior. The landscape is largely defined by the Apostle Islands State Forest, showing a network of inland trails and the distinct coastal topography of the region. A notable industrial marker is found at Quarry Bay, where the namesake Quarry indicates the historical extraction of local stone. The map detail extends to surrounding landmasses including Ironwood Island, Cat Island, and the northern tip of Michigan Island. Natural landmarks like Balancing Rock and the prominent Presque Isle Point highlight the island's unique geological features. This documentation by the U.S. Geological Survey reflects the area's transition towards conservation and recreational use within La Pointe Twp prior to the formal establishment of the National Lakeshore.
