1969 Map of Nett Lake NE

About this map

Kabetogama State Forest dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, where the terrestrial environment is defined by dense woodland and a network of seasonal routes. The northern reaches of Nett Lake and the winding course of the Lost River anchor the drainage system, while the Nett Lake Indian Reservation Boundary marks a significant jurisdictional line through the forest. Evidence of industrial activity appears at a remote Gravel Pit, and various Winter Trails cross the terrain, illustrating the necessity of seasonal access in this boggy region. This 1960s survey, with updates from the early 1980s, reveals a land of significant elevation benchmarks such as Bm 1395 and Bm 1332, used to navigate the complex hydrology of Portage Creek.
