2019 Map of Mulligan Lake

About this map

Mulligan Lake and the winding course of the Roseau River anchor this remote northern landscape where Beltrami, Roseau, and Lake of the Woods counties converge. The terrain is characterized by extensive wetlands and forest management, visible through the grid of established timber and access routes like Winner Forest Rd and Faunce Butterfield Forest Rd. This area reflects the mid-to-late twentieth-century shift toward organized conservation and forest resource management, where primary access depends on long forest roads such as Dicks Pkwy Sw. Notable water features including Hansen Cr feed into the regional drainage system, illustrating the natural hydrology of the Minnesota Northwoods before modern development. The map detail highlights the intersection of township and range lines, providing a precise spatial framework for land ownership and resource tracking in this specialized environmental corridor.
