2016 Map of Deer Yard Lake

About this map

Superior National Forest dominates this northern landscape, where the high ridges of the Cascade Hills overlook the dramatic shoreline of Lake Superior. The map details a sophisticated network of recreational routes, including the Superior Hiking Trail and the Caribou Snowmobile Trail, which traverse the elevated terrain and steep descents toward the water. Natural drainage is prominent, with Murmur Cr and Indian Camp Cr carving through the forests. Near the coast, Black Point stands as a landmark where Minnesota Highway 61 follows the natural curve of the lake. Local infrastructure like Old Deeryard Boat Landing Road and various family-named routes like Ron Cardinal Road suggest the dual nature of this area as both a protected wilderness and a seasonal destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
