1951 Map of Strongs

About this map

Strongs serves as the focal point for this section of the Upper Peninsula, situated at a junction of the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad and several early roadways. The map reveals a tight-knit community structure through the presence of the Community Ch, Jones Sch, and the local Town Hall. Just to the south at Strongs Corner, the landscape transitions into the expansive Chippewa Marquette National Forest, where the terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands and small water bodies like the Rice Lakes and Betchler Lakes.
