About this map

Blackduck serves as the focal point of this Beltrami County survey, surrounded by the water-rich terrain of northern Minnesota. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the Chippewa National Forest, which blankets the southern portion of the quadrangle. A dense network of lakes and drainage systems, including Blackduck Lake, Rabideau Lake, and the winding Turtle River, illustrates the post-glacial hydrology of the region.

Genealogists and local historians can locate community landmarks such as Lakeview Cem near the town center and Summit Township Cem to the east. The map detail reflects a transition from organized town streets like Summit Ave E to the remote logging and access roads that penetrate the forest, such as Jackpine Cutoff Rd NE and Lookout Tower Rd NE. These roads follow the undulating contours of the land, connecting scattered water bodies like Loon Lake and Funk Lake.
