1971 Map of Ottertail Point

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Sucker Bay and the northern reaches of Leech Lake dominate this 1970s orthophotomap, which utilizes high-altitude aerial photography to detail the complex shoreline of Cass County. This specific cartographic style emphasizes the dense forest cover and wetland transitions of the Chippewa National Forest and Bowstring State Forest. The map is characterized by significant administrative overlaps, showing the Leech Lake Indian Reservation Boundary as it bisects the open water and timberlands. Prominent landforms such as Ottertail Point and Hardwood Point reach into the basin, while the Stony Point Campground serves as a primary point of human activity on the southern shore. The technical data notes a normal reservoir pool elevation of 1296 feet, reflecting the managed water levels of this massive glacial lake system.
