1982 Map of Horseshoe Lake

About this map

The St Croix National Scenic Riverway anchors the southwestern corner of this survey, where the Namekagon River flows through Washburn County. This glacial landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the prominent Minong Flowage and its associated Powerplant in the north. The area shows a transition from dense woodland and wetlands to recreational lakeside development, particularly around Nancy Lake, Chicog Lake, and Matthews Lake. Local transit is marked by historical routes like the St Croix Trail and specialized facilities such as the Sutherland Landing Strip. Small settlements and landings like Menah and Byrkits Landing provide evidence of early river-and-rail era connectivity near the Totagatic River.
