About this map

Harris Lake and Linwood Lake anchor this Saint Louis County landscape where the North and South branches of the Whiteface River define the regional hydrology. The 2011 survey documents a remote Northwoods territory dominated by a dense network of tributaries including Bum Creek, Shiver Creek, and Porcupine Creek. The presence of Camp 26 Trl and Ne Grade Rd suggests a landscape historically utilized for timber management or outdoor recreation, as these routes often follow the paths of former logging grades.

While largely undeveloped, the road network near Linwood Lake such as S Linwood Shores Rd and W Linwood Lake Rd indicates small-scale residential or seasonal settlement. The map provides a clear look at the intricate drainage patterns of Reno Creek and Wallow Creek before they join the larger North Branch Whiteface River, offering researchers a detailed record of the natural topography in Ault Township.
