About this map

Cohasset serves as the focal point of this region, situated where the Mississippi River flows through Blackwater Lake and into Jay Gould Lake. This landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring numerous named islands such as Battleship Island and Picnic Island within Deer Lake, as well as Crawford Island and Hog Island in the central waters. The map illustrates a developed lakefront culture with many local routes like S Deer Circle Dr and Back-O-Moon Rd providing access to seasonal and permanent residences along Bass Lake and Lillian Lake. The industrial presence of Minnesota Power stands out near the river, signaling the modern energy infrastructure that characterizes the local economy. Throughout the quadrangle, the transition from open water to wetlands is marked by features like The Narrows and Fishhouse Bay, revealing the intricate shoreline of Itasca County.
