About this map

Big Dardis Lake and Little Dardis Lake dominate the northern glacial landscape of this Price County terrain. The Elk River winds through the central portion of the map, fed by numerous tributaries including Hoffman Cr and Cromer Cr. The area is defined by its extensive wetlands and water bodies, ranging from the isolated Lost Lake to the more developed shores of Musser Lake in the northeast corner.

Settlement patterns follow the rural road network, with clusters of development near Cranberry Lake and along established routes like Co Hwy H. The hydrology of the region is complex, with the Little Elk River and Middle Elk River creating a dense network of waterways that likely shaped the local logging and recreational history. Family names and local landmarks are preserved in the road designations, such as Darlak Bay Ln and Bare Acres Ln, which provide clues to the generational occupancy of these lakeside properties.
