2022 Map of Hanging Horn Lake

About this map

The Moose Horn River winds through a landscape of glacial lakes and wetlands in this modern survey of the region between Barnum and Moose Lake. The area's transportation history is prominently marked by the conversion of former rail corridors into significant recreation routes, including the Willard Munger State Trail and the Soo Line South: Carlton Trl. These corridors follow the old grades that once fueled the timber and transport economy of Carlton County. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several notable sites, such as the Riverside Cem near the riverbanks and the Sunset Memorial Cem situated west of Hanging Horn Lake. Further south, the map details the boundary between Carlton and Pine Counties, passing through dense lake country including Lake Twelve and Sturgeon Lake, where the Methodist Cem serves as a landmark for early local settlement.
