2013 Map of Ottertail Point

About this map

Chippewa National Forest defines the wooded shoreline of Leech Lake in this northern Minnesota survey. The map details the intricate geography of the lake's western side, where long, narrow peninsulas such as Ottertail Point and Hardwood Point reach into the water. Settlement is primarily seasonal and recreational, centered on sites like the Big Rock Summer Recreation Residences and the Stony Point Campground and Picnic Area on the southern shore. A network of forest roads, including Sucker Bay Rd NW and Two Points Rd NW, provides access to these isolated lakeside communities and the small settlement at Two Points. The map provides a precise view of the interface between protected forest land and the established summer residences that have long characterized the local culture of the lake.
