About this map

The boundary between St. Louis and Lake counties bisects this northern Minnesota landscape, defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands. This 2019 survey documents a region where water and timber access dictate the road network, centered around King Lake and Little Stone Lake. The topography is navigated via logging and local routes like the Drummond Grade and the Pequaywan Truck Trl, reflecting the area's history of forest management and recreation.

Major drainages such as Pine Creek and the West Branch Knife River snake through the terrain, connecting isolated bodies of water like Sawmill Lake and Kookoosh Lake. The presence of roads like Old Drummond Rd and Stockholm Way suggests the gradual development of seasonal residences and access points within the dense lake country, while names like Pigeon Lake and Beaver Lake indicate the local flora and fauna that have long defined the character of the Arrowhead region.
