About this map

Chippewa National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Minnesota, where the waters of Lake Winnibigoshish and Little Winnibigoshish Lake meet. The map reveals a complex network of wetlands and bays, including McAvity Bay and the northern reaches of the Mississippi River. This area, historically vital for timber and recreation, is marked by distinctive landforms like Sugarbush Point, Battle Point, and Plug Hat Point.

Evidence of local history is found at the Fairbanks Cem on the eastern side of the sheet, while the presence of the Winnie Snowmobile Trail and Avenue of Pines Snowmobile Tr reflects the region's modern role as a hub for outdoor recreation. The survey also identifies secluded water bodies like Schoolhouse Lake and Tamarack Lake, providing a clear record of the shoreline and access roads such as Plughat Point Rd as they existed in the early 21st century.
