1951 Map of Whitefish Point

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Whitefish Point serves as a critical maritime landmark where the expansive waters of Lake Superior meet Whitefish Bay. This 1951 survey, based on aerial photography from the previous year, captures the shoreline just as maritime navigation technology was evolving. The point is anchored by the USCG Radio Sta and Fog Warning Sta, a vital installation for Great Lakes shipping safety, accompanied by a cluster of Towers at the peninsula's tip.
