1970 Map of Webb Lake

About this map

Chippewa National Forest dominates the landscape of this Cass County region, where dense woodlands are broken by a complex network of glacial lakes and rivers. The hydrological pattern is anchored by the sprawling Webb Lake and Pleasant Lake, which are connected by the winding Boy River. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals a quiet, resource-oriented landscape defined by seasonal access and conservation boundaries. Notable landmarks include the Radio Tower (KNMT-TV) near Birch Lake, and scattered gravel pits that point to local infrastructure maintenance. Smaller water bodies like Stony Lake, Larson Lake, and Paquet Lake are interconnected by minor drainage ways, reflecting a wilderness area largely managed for forestry and recreation during the late twentieth century.
