1996 Map of Ball Club

About this map

Ball Club Lake and the meandering upper reaches of the Mississippi River anchor this 1990s landscape, where the Leech Lake Indian Reservation meets the Chippewa National Forest. The settlement of Ball Club serves as the central point of interest, located along the western shore of the lake. The map reveals a high concentration of wetlands and conservation lands, including the Mud Lake Wildlife Management Area and the Snake Brook Impoundment. Local history is captured through markers like the Tibbetts Cem, a smaller unnamed Cemetery, and the Apostolic Church. Industrial footprints are visible through the Oil Pipeline and Gas Pipeline corridors that cut across the northern terrain, alongside a notable Gravel Pit and the rugged Morse area. This survey documents the complex water systems of Mud Goose Lake and Mud Lake before they exit the quadrangle boundaries.
