About this map

Superior National Forest dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where the Vermilion River and Pelican River wind through a dense network of wetlands and wooded hills. The presence of Gold Mine Rd and the John Congdon Goldmine Wetlands points to the region's mineral prospecting history, while the Crane Lake Lookout Tower in the northeast corner highlights the area's ongoing management and fire surveillance needs.

Water defines the geography here, with Kabustasa Lake and Echo Lake situated near the eastern boundary, connected by smaller tributaries like Hanson Cr and Camp Forty Cr. Evidence of early settlement and land use can be traced through the Forest Home Cemetery and a series of forest routes, including Vermilion Falls Rd and River Rd. The map provides a detailed view of the terrain around Chipmunk Falls, where the river system continues its course through the protected forest lands.
