2019 Map of Kawishiwi Lake

About this map

Superior National Forest defines this vast northern landscape, where an intricate network of waterways provides the primary structure for the region. Central to this survey is Kawishiwi Lake, joined by a constellation of smaller water bodies such as Phoebe Lake, Sundown Lake, and Bill Lake. The map reveals the hydrography of the Boundary Waters area, tracing the winding paths of Hog Creek and Coffee Cr through the dense forest. While natural features dominate, several specific access points are noted, including Perent Lake Road and the Cross River/Wringer Lake route. This 2019 edition offers a contemporary look at the preservation of this wilderness area along the border of Lake and Cook Counties, highlighting the persistence of unnamed trails and primitive forest roads like Hog Creek Spur A that serve as the only terrestrial markers in the backcountry.
