About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this aquatic landscape in Cook County, where a dense network of glacial lakes and portages defines the terrain. The 2019 survey captures the connectivity of these waters, detailing established routes such as Alton - Beth and Grace Lake - Beth Lake. These paths, alongside the Wonder Lake-Alton Lake trail, trace the traditional movement through the North Woods.

South of Alton Lake, the map documents modern forestry and access infrastructure including Sawbill Trail and The Grade, which intersect with Nicholson Road. Smaller, interior waters like Sunhigh Lake, Maggie Lake, and Hog Lake are connected by numerous creek systems such as Hog Cr and Plouff Cr. This map is a record of the wilderness management area, highlighting the balance between road access points like Perent Lake Road and the remote interiors of Big Snow Lake and Little Snow Lake.
