2013 Map of Martin Lake

About this map

Saint Louis River defines the northern edge of this northern Minnesota landscape, where the boundary between St. Louis Co and Carlton Co marks the transition into a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands. The central terrain is characterized by high points like the site of the Arrowhead Lookout Tower, providing a vantage over the surrounding forests. Local road networks, including Samuelson Rd and Brandon Rd, weave through the area to reach remote water bodies such as Martin Lake, Lost Lake, and Hardwood Lake. This 2013 survey illustrates a region largely defined by its hydrology, with drainage systems like Martin Br and Stoney Brook connecting the scattered basins. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Arrowhead Cem near McCamus Rd provides a specific point of interest in an otherwise sparsely settled woodland environment.
