2010 Map of East Crooked Lake

About this map

East Crooked Lake and its surrounding wetlands anchor this recreational and timber landscape in Hubbard County. By the early 21st century, the area had developed a distinct character defined by seasonal tourism and forest management. Established retreats like Whispering Pines Resort and Campground and Breezy Pines Resort and Campground reflect the region's long-standing draw for vacationers and sportsmen. The map documents an extensive network of forestry roads, such as Steam Boat Forest Rd and Akeley Cutoff Rd, which segment the dense woods around Waboose Lake and Coon Lake. A notable landmark is the Thorpe Lookout Tower, situated at a high point in the northwestern quadrant. The transition from public forest tracks to local routes like Mantrap Twp 14 illustrates the intersection of wilderness management and residential settlement near the lake shores.
