About this map

Nevis serves as the central hub of this lake-studded landscape in Hubbard County, where the town’s grid meets the recreational and ecological corridor of the Bunyan Trails Rd. The geography is defined by a dense sequence of water bodies, notably the numbered chain of the Crow Wing River system, including Eighth Crow Wing Lake and Seventh Crow Wing Lake. These lakes, along with the irregular shoreline of Lake Belle Taine, illustrate the post-glacial topography of the region, where water and wetland dominate the transit patterns.

Local history is anchored by Lakeview Cem near the town site and the more remote Lemon Cem to the southeast. The inclusion of Hay Acres Airport and numerous named forest tracks like Glacial Ridge Trl and Great Pine Trl reflects the modern intersection of aviation, timber, and tourism. Small drainages such as Wallingford Cr and Mucky Cr connect the larger basins like Island Lake and Holland-Lucy Lake, forming a complex drainage network typical of the Minnesota Northwoods.
