2013 Map of Benedict

About this map

The settlement of Benedict sits at the heart of this Northwoods landscape, where the Kabekona River winds toward the expansive waters of Leech Lake. This 2013 survey reveals a region defined by its complex hydrography and recreation-based infrastructure, situated along the boundary of Hubbard Co and Cass Co. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Chippewa National Forest, while the northern reaches feature a cluster of glacial lakes including Garfield Lake, Spring Lake, and Swamp Lake. Significant local landmarks like the Golden Gate Cem and Walker Municipal Airport provide essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians. The presence of the Walker Rest Area and several modern developments such as the Wedgewood Golf Course and Water's Edge RV Park reflect the area's continued evolution as a destination for seasonal travelers and residents alike.
