2021 Map of Long Lake

About this map

Gardner Lake and Long Lake dominate this glaciated terrain in Washington County, where a complex network of wetlands and streams connects a series of prominent water bodies. Small settlements like Halls Mills and Chase Mills appear as modest clusters along the southern half of the map, reflecting a localized economy historically tied to the area's hydrology. The presence of Chase Mills Stream and Rocky Lake Stream underscores the importance of these drainage systems in shaping the early movement and industry of the region. Extensive bogs and heaths, such as Hobart Bog and MacElroy Heath, illustrate the persistence of the native landscape despite the development of a dense network of local roads. These routes, including Halls Mills Rd and Gardners Lake Rd, trace the high ground and provide access to the various peninsulas and heads that reach into the larger lakes.
