1899 Map of Witbeck

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The Michigamme River and its various tributaries define the landscape of the Michigan Upper Peninsula in the late 19th century, serving as a primary corridor through Baraga, Iron, and Marquette counties. This reconnaissance survey, conducted between 1891 and 1896, captures a remote wilderness territory dominated by glacial lakes and winding waterways. The small settlement of Witbeck sits as a lone outpost along the Chicago and Milwaukee St. Paul R. R., highlighting the critical role of rail infrastructure in connecting these isolated northern timber and mining lands to broader markets.
