About this map

Big Cormorant Lake dominates this landscape in southern Becker County, surrounded by a complex system of glacial kettle lakes and smaller water bodies like Little Cormorant Lake and Leaf Lake. The area's mid-century recreational development is evident in the presence of Camp Cormorant and Rose Haven Campground along the larger shores, while Kaiser's Airstrip reflects local private infrastructure.

Genealogical interest is found in the scattered historical burial grounds, including the Audubon Cem near the northern boundary and the Felker Family Cem further south. The map traces a dense network of local routes such as Co Hwy-5 and Co Hwy-11 that connect various family-named features like Engebretson Lake and Dahlberg Lake. This survey illustrates a Minnesota lake country at its modern peak of seasonal and year-round habitation.
