2016 Map of Finland

About this map

The settlement of Finland serves as the primary hub in this portion of Lake County, where the inland topography begins its descent toward the cold waters of Lake Superior. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of the Baptism River, including its E Br Baptism River and East Branch Baptism River tributaries, which cut through the North Shore highland. This era shows a network of local roads such as Cramer Rd and Sonju Lake Rd providing access to numerous water bodies including Sonju Lake, Leskinen Lake, and Lake Twentythree. For genealogists and local historians, the Finland Cem and the small community at Maple offer specific points of interest. The area remains focused on recreation and forestry, evidenced by the N Shore State Trail winding through the townships of t58n r7w and t58n r6w.
