About this map

The Superior National Forest dominates this landscape in Lake County, where a legacy of timber and transport is etched into the northern woods. The Stony River flows through the western edge, providing a primary drainage alongside the high point at Stony Tower Hill. This area is characterized by an extensive network of old industrial routes, most notably the Dmir Grade and various spurs like the Dmir Grade Spur H, which trace the path of former railroad operations through the forest. Small settlements like Winter and the Jay See Landing area mark the rare points of human habitation. The terrain is dense with glacial water bodies, from the larger Osier Lake and Cloquet Lake to smaller basins like Fishtrap Lake and Spruce Lake, illustrating the complex wetland and stream systems that defined the region's 20th-century development.
