About this map

The Whiteface River meanders through the northwest corner of this St. Louis County landscape, which is defined by an extensive network of wetlands and interconnected water bodies. Significant features include Comstock Lake and its companion, Lower Comstock Lake, joined by a series of creeks such as Gimlet Creek. To the southeast, the terrain transitions toward Rush Lake and the winding Us-Kab-Wan-Ka River, reflecting a northern Minnesota environment where water dictates the movement of people and resources.

Primary access to these remote waters is provided by a thin web of local roads and paths, including Comstock Lake Rd and the Jim Readdy Truck Trl. Named residential and access points like Setterlund Dr and Wilderness Retreat Rd indicate modern recreational use and settlement patterns within the townships of t55n r15w and t54n r14w. Small ponds and marshlands such as Hart Lake and Burle Lake pepper the map, illustrating the glacial topography typical of the region.
