1951 Map of Zim

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The St Louis River winds through this section of the Iron Range, defining a landscape shaped by both glacial lakes and industrial enterprise. Mining's footprint is evident in the northern reaches, where a massive Tailings Pond and various Gravel Pits sit near the settlement of Forbes. Local life centers on the rail corridors, with Zim and Fens established along the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range tracks, while the Duluth Winnipeg and Pacific cuts through the eastern marshlands.
