1956 Map of Upson

About this map

Upson serves as the primary settlement within this mid-century topographic survey, positioned near the confluence of the Potato River and several local creeks. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the timber and transport industries, evidenced by the Minneapolis Sault Ste Marie and St Paul railroad corridor cutting through the northern section. Further south, the woods around McIver Camp are crisscrossed by an Old Railroad Grade, tracing the paths of earlier logging operations.
