1969 Map of Upper Rice Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Upper Rice Lake anchors this landscape in the late 1960s, situated at the intersection of protected wilderness and local industry. The map captures the significant environmental and jurisdictional boundaries of Clearwater County, including the White Earth Indian Reservation and the White Earth State Forest. This territory is defined by its complex hydrology, where the Wild Rice River flows south from the main lake, and smaller bodies of water like Mud Lake and Minerva Lake dot the wetlands. Human presence is concentrated near the township lines of Nora and Moose Creek, evidenced by community landmarks such as Bethel Ch and the Nora Cem. The prevalence of several wildlife management areas reflects a managed wilderness character, while scattered Gravel Pit sites and a prominent Pipeline indicate the extraction and transport activities shaping the rural economy during this era.
