2010 Map of Martin Lake

About this map

The Saint Louis River defines the northern reaches of this landscape in Carlton County, marking a terrain of scattered glacial lakes and wetlands at the start of the 21st century. The interior is largely defined by water bodies such as Martin Lake, Lost Lake, and Hardwood Lake, which are interconnected by drainages like Martin Branch and Stoney Brook. Human settlement is sparsely distributed along a grid of rural roads, including McCamus Rd and Brandon Rd. Notable landmarks for local history and navigation include the Arrowhead Cemetery and the Arrowhead Lookout Tower, positioned in the northern half of the quadrangle. This layout reveals a region primarily dedicated to forestry or conservation, where the infrastructure is built around the natural flow of the waterways and the management of the surrounding timberland.
