These photographs were found in a U.S. Forest Service photo album, circa 1920. At the time the region was known as the roadless area of the Superior National Forest. Each photo in the album was accompanied by a type-written note, which we have reprinted with each image. Our thanks to Barbara Wenstrom Shank and William P. Wenstrom for sharing these images.
