2019 Map of Big Cormorant Lake

About this map

Big Cormorant Lake dominates the central landscape of this Becker County quadrangle, surrounded by a dense network of smaller basins and glacial potholes that define the region's hydrography. The distribution of Audubon Cem, Strandvik Cem, and the Felker Family Cem near the northern waters of Felker Lake and Boyer Lake provides essential coordinates for genealogical research in this part of Minnesota. The map details a modern rural infrastructure of county roads and named avenues like 140th Ave, indicating the long-standing importance of these routes for lake access and local commerce. Further south, Kaiser's Airstrip near Hougland Lake marks a point of private aviation, while the complex shorelines of Upper Cormorant Lake and Middle Cormorant Lake illustrate the intricate water system that has historically shaped recreation and settlement in the area.
