1903 Map of West Canada Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1913

About this map

The Moose River South Branch and its complex network of feeder streams define this pocket of Hamilton County, where early 20th-century life centered on seasonal encampments and the rugged timber landscape. The map shows the remote outpost of Kenwells and several named sites like Millers Camp and Pillsbury Lake Camp, reflecting a period when this area was primarily the domain of loggers, guides, and hunters. High peaks including Wakely Mt. and West Canada Mt. overlook a dense concentration of water bodies, from the western edge of the Fulton Chain Lakes at Seventh Lake to the secluded West Canada Lake. The presence of the West Canada Creek Trail and various benchmarks suggests the difficulty of surveying this interior wilderness. Unique terrain features such as The Plains near Icehouse Pond offer a distinct contrast to the surrounding ridges and cobbles that dominate the landscape.
