2010 Map of Esquagamah Lake

About this map

Esquagamah Lake and Round Lake anchor a landscape defined by glacial waters and conservation management in this 2010 Aitkin County survey. The Little Willow River meanders southward through the central quadrangle, its flow controlled by structures such as the Little Willow River Dam and the Little Willow River Wildlife Area Dam. These features, alongside the Little Willow WMA, highlight the region's importance for wildlife habitat and water regulation. In the southeast corner, the Mississippi River cuts a wide path, followed closely by the Great River Rd. This area also contains the Riverside Cemetery, a key landmark for local genealogical research located near the river's bend. The map illustrates a transition from the dense lake clusters of Waukenabo Lake and East Lake in the northeast to the more isolated basins of Lizer Lake and Blind Lake in the southwest, connected by a network of rural township roads.
