1960 Map of Tait Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The waters of Tait Lake and the Tait River anchor this 1960 survey of a remote lake-strewn landscape in Cook County. Spanning both the Superior National Forest and the Minnesota State Forest, the map captures a period of early outdoor recreational development, evidenced by the scattered campgrounds along Lichen Lake and the presence of a Gravel Pit near Mississippi Creek. The geography is defined by a dense network of connected water bodies, from the larger Cascade Lake and Lake Clara to smaller, distinctively named features like Mistletoe Lake, Holly Lake, and Roast Lake. The State Forest Boundary cuts across the southern portion of the sheet, where Pike Lake and White Pine Lake sit among a landscape of unimproved dirt roads and light-duty trails typical of the North Woods before modern development intensified.
