About this map

The St Louis River meanders through this landscape of the Mesabi Range region, defining the northern geography near Forbes. This area, heavily influenced by the iron mining industry, features a massive Tailings Pond at its center, signaling the industrial transformation of the terrain during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Zim serves as a local hub along the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad, which parallels the river and connects the mining sites to southern ports.
