2019 Map of Height of Land Lake

About this map

Height of Land Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Becker County region, forming part of a complex lacustrine system connected by the Otter Tail River and the Egg River. The area is characterized by an intricate network of water bodies, including the centrally located Rice Lake and Island Lake, which are separated by narrow peninsulas and glacial landforms. The modern recreational and conservation footprint is evident through the path of the N Country National Scenic Trail, which winds past Johnson Lake and Booth Lake toward the eastern boundary near Mud Lake. Local infrastructure is defined by legacy routes such as Chippewa Trl and Schoolhouse Rd, reflecting a landscape transitioned from early settlement patterns to one of managed natural spaces and seasonal residences.
