1956 Map of Three Lakes
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Baraga State Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, where a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands defines the landscape of the Spurr and Covington townships. The mid-century corridor of the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad cuts through the center of the sheet, connecting the settlement at Three Lakes to Imperial Heights. This rail line and the parallel highway served as the primary industrial arteries for a region defined by timber and mineral extraction, evidenced by the Ohio Mine and an unnamed mine near Bass Lake.
