1956 Map of Vermilion Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Vermilion Lake dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where a complex network of bays, narrows, and islands defines the topography. The 1956 survey, updated with 1969 aerial revisions, details a wilderness region transitioning into a recreational and resource management area. The Vermilion Dam Club and the Vermilion Dam Lookout Tower stand as prominent human landmarks amidst the dense timber of the Superior National Forest and Kabetogama State Forest. Small settlements and seasonal points like Moccasin Point are connected by light-duty and unimproved roads, highlighting the area's relative isolation.
