About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this wilderness area in Lake County, characterized by a complex network of glacial lakes and river headwaters. The landscape is defined by the central Cloquet Lake, which feeds into surrounding basins like Katherine Lake and Sink Lake. To the south and east, the drainage system transitions into the Beaver River and its various tributaries, including the Fourth Branch Beaver River and Hockamin Cr.

Transport through this dense forest is limited to managed service routes such as Cloquet Lake Spur G and Hefelinger Road, alongside the more established JC Campbell Rd in the southeast. These corridors provide the only significant human footprint in an area otherwise dominated by wetlands and water bodies like Fenman Lake and Ekbeck Lake. The map reveals the intricate natural hydrology of the North Woods, where small streams like Hell Cr and Crown Cr connect isolated lakes within the forest interior.
