About this map

Isle Royale is depicted here at the southwest end of the island, anchored by the settlement of Windigo and the expansive Washington Harbor. This wilderness landscape, managed as Isle Royale National Park, is defined by a series of parallel geologic features including Minong Ridge and Greenstone Ridge. The mapping shows the transition of the island from its extractive industrial past, represented by the Wendigo Mines, to a protected natural area with established backcountry routes like the Feldtmann Lake Trail. Dozens of smaller islands, such as Johns Island and Thompson Island, dot the coast where ferry routes connect the harbor to the mainland. Coastal landmarks including a Ranger Station, Gaging Station, and various campgrounds reflect the mid-1980s infrastructure supporting both maritime navigation and park recreation.
