2019 Map of Biwabik

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses much of this northeastern Minnesota landscape, where the Laurentian Divide separates water systems across the Embarrass Mountains. The area is defined by its glacial hydrology, with Embarrass Lake, Sabin Lake, and Wynne Lake linked by the Embarrass River. Settled communities such as Biwabik, Pineville, and Aurora are clustered in the southern half of the map, revealing a transition from the wooded highlands to the more developed Iron Range corridor. In Biwabik, a specific Depot Location and Lakeside Cem near the river point to the town's historical infrastructure. The map also traces modern recreational and transport networks, including the Laurentian Snowmobile trail and Voyageurs Trl, which navigate the complex terrain of The Narrows and surrounding ridges.
