2019 Map of Lake Polly

About this map

The Superior National Forest dominates this northern wilderness landscape, defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and river systems. The Louse River meanders through the central terrain, connecting several prominent water bodies including Malberg Lake and Bowstring Lake. This 2019 survey illustrates the intricate hydrography of the region, where numerous named lakes such as Kivandeba Lake, Wapata Lake, and Coot Lake are separated by narrow land bridges and marshy depressions. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Lake County and Cook County, which bisects the eastern portion of the quadrangle. With no major roads or permanent settlements indicated, the map highlights the primitive character of this protected forest area, providing essential detail for navigating the interconnected waterways like Koma Lake and Trail Lake.
