1953 Map of Twig

About this map

Fish Lake Reservoir dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its irregular shoreline and numerous islands shaped by the Fish Lake Dam on the Beaver River. The region reflects a mix of managed timberlands and early twentieth-century infrastructure, with the Cloquet State Forest spanning the north and the Duluth Winnipeg and Pacific railroad cutting a north-south line through the center of the sheet. Small rural nodes like Twig, Bartlett, and Taft provide points of settlement, often centered around small lakes or railway stops. Local life is documented through features such as the Caribou Lake Sch and the Grand Lake Cem, while the interior terrain is marked by a complex network of waterways, including the winding Us-Kab-Wan-Ka River and the Cloquet River. A Lookout Tower near the County Farm and a Rifle Range in the northeast highlight the varied administrative and utility uses of this St. Louis County area during the early 1950s.
