About this map

Park Rapids serves as the central hub of this lakeside landscape, positioned at the intersection of Us-71 and State 34. The area is defined by its dense concentration of water bodies, including the expansive Fishhook Lake and the Fishhook River Reservoir, which feed into the Fishhook River. This waterway network, coupled with smaller basins like Mud Lake and Sweitzer Lake, has long shaped the local economy and settlement patterns of Hubbard County.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds across the terrain, from Greenwood Cem near the town center to the Straight River Cem situated in the southern reaches. The map also records significant regional infrastructure such as the Park Rapids Municipal-Konshok Field Airport and the Hubbard County Fairgrounds, reflecting the town's role as a primary service center. To the north, the winding Potato River connects Potato Lake to the larger lake system, while the community of Park Estates represents modern residential growth along the eastern shores.
