2010 Map of First Crow Wing Lake

About this map

Badoura and the surrounding Hubbard County wetlands are defined by an intricate network of waterways at the headwaters of the Crow Wing River. This 2010 survey details the transition from the upper chain of lakes, including Fourth Crow Wing Lake and Third Crow Wing Lake, into the more expansive waters of First Crow Wing Lake. The landscape is shaped by water management infrastructure, including the Washburn Lake Dam and several impoundments such as the Huntersville Impoundment Number 4 Dam. These features, along with many smaller bodies like Wolf Lake and Bladder Lake, reflect a terrain where drainage and water levels are carefully maintained. The local road system, including Huntersville Short Cut Rd and Hubbard Line Rd, provides a grid that navigates around the numerous swamps and creeks like Wallingford Creek and Bender Creek.
