1968 Map of Wahkon North

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mille Lacs Lake dominates this 1960s topographic landscape, where the southern and eastern shores reveal a transition from forested recreation areas to small lakeside settlements. The town of Wahkon serves as the primary hub along the southern edge, situated near the protected waters of Isle Harbor and the neighboring Father Hennepin State Park. This era of the lake's history shows a reliance on its natural resources and recreational draw, evidenced by the presence of Galloway Youth Camp and several named island features like Hennepin Island, which is part of the Mille Lacs National Wildlife Refuge. Detailed depth curves provided by the Minnesota Department of Conservation map the underwater topography of Sunset Bay and Wahkon Bay, providing a clear view of the shoreline and sandbars as they appeared before modern developments altered the coast.
