About this map

Superior National Forest defines this borderland landscape, where a dense network of lakes and portage routes straddles the international boundary between Minnesota and Canada. The northern edge is dominated by the Rose Lake and Arrow Lake systems, connected by the historic Border Route trail. This terrain is characterized by long, narrow glacial lakes like Clearwater Lake, Bearskin Lake, and Duncan Lake, which are linked by specialized paths such as the Caribou Rock Trail and the Banadad Trail.

Modern access is facilitated by the Gunflint Trail and a series of forest roads, including S Hungry Jack Road and Clearwater Road. The presence of the CGT-Old Logging Camp Trail Main provides a window into the region's timber history, while numerous smaller water bodies like Hungry Jack Lake, Flour Lake, and Leo Lake showcase the intricate hydrography that has shaped travel and recreation in this part of Cook County for generations.
