1949 Map of Trout Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Boulder Junction and Winegar anchor this 1949 topographic study of the dense lake country straddling the Michigan Wisconsin state line. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, ranging from the expansive Trout Lake in the south to Stateline Lake at the northern boundary. Civil infrastructure and conservation efforts of the era are evident through the presence of a CCC Camp and the State Forest Headquarters, along with fire-watch positions like the Boulder Fire Tower and State Fire Tower. The map reveals a post-war Northwoods in transition, where established settlements exist alongside vast lake chains such as Big Crooked Lake, Boulder Lake, and White Sand Lake. Local history is captured in the placement of these early crossroads and the detailed surveying of numerous smaller bodies of water like Mermaid L, Armour Lake, and Annabelle Lake.
