2022 Map of Eagles Nest

About this map

Armstrong Lake and the interconnected waters of the Eagles Nest chain dominate this portion of the Iron Range landscape. The map details a complex hydrography where small settlements like Eagles Nest and McComber are defined by their proximity to the Armstrong River and various lake basins. The presence of the Superior National Forest in the southeast corner and the extensive David Dill-Taconite State Trl highlights a region deeply integrated with public lands and recreational access. Shoreline features such as Stocking Point and Howes Point on Eagles Nest Lake Number Two indicate the localized geography of the lake-country community. Numerous portages and trails, including the Holter Portage Trl and Becky Lake Trl, illustrate the historical and modern importance of overland connections between these northern water bodies.
