2019 Map of Mosquito Creek

About this map

Lower Red Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, its vast shoreline marking the boundary where open water meets the extensive wetlands of northern Minnesota. This 2019 survey documents a sparsely developed region defined by these hydrologic systems, including the namesake Mosquito Cr which drains into the lake's northern edge. The presence of Resyn Hwy 27 provides a rare point of terrestrial access through this watery terrain, crossing several survey townships such as t154n r36w and t153n r36w. The jurisdictional boundary of Clearwater Co Beltrami Co is visible in the southwestern corner, reflecting the division of these remote lakefront lands. For those studying the geography of the Red Lake Reservation area, the map offers a clear look at the contemporary interface between the massive lake and the surrounding bog and marshland ecosystems.
