2016 Map of Decker Lake

About this map

Chippewa National Forest dominates this northern landscape, where the waters of Decker Lake and the Third River create a complex hydrological network. The terrain is defined by its glacial heritage, featuring a high density of small lakes and winding waterways such as Skimerhorn Cr and Everton Cr. The township lines of t149n r30w and t148n r29w organize a region largely characterized by wetlands and timber, with a light network of forest roads like Co RD 30 and Brooks Rd NE providing the only terrestrial access. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent natural character of the Beltrami and Itasca County border, highlighting named water bodies like Chinaman Lake and Christenson Lake that remain central to the area's geography.
