About this map

Superior National Forest and Finland State Forest dominate this landscape in northeastern Minnesota, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and river headwaters. The prominence of Mt Weber stands near the northern boundary, overlooking Greenwood Lake and the winding course of the Stony River. This area is characterized by its timber and recreation infrastructure, including a Winter Trail system and several remote water bodies such as Upland Lake and Hjalmer Lake.

Transport history is visible in the corridor of the Old RR Grade and Abandoned RR that cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle. These routes, alongside features like the White Pine Picnic Area and Heliport Jordan, reflect the dual identity of the region as both a managed forest and a destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The drainage patterns of Breda Creek and Murphy Creek feed into the Cloquet River, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Lake County backcountry during the early 1980s.
