About this map

Akeley and Chamberlain anchor this northern Minnesota landscape, where the dense hydrology of the lake country meets the protected boundaries of the Chippewa National Forest. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of water bodies, including the centrally located Crystal Lake and the winding Shingobee River which flows through the north. To the northwest, Tenth Crow Wing Lake marks the beginning of a chain of lakes that has historically drawn travelers and residents to the region.

Transport and recreation are intertwined on this sheet, featuring both the rugged Great Trl and the Snoway 1 Gia Snowmobile Trail cutting through the timber. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies significant burial sites such as Akeley Cem and White Oak Cem, alongside numerous small lakes like Wegwos Lake and North Haynes Lake that characterize the glacial topography of Hubbard and Cass counties.
