2022 Map of Pine Mountain

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this wilderness region in Cook County, where the hydrological network of the Brule River and South Brule River dictates the landscape. The terrain is defined by significant elevations such as Pine Mtn and Blueberry Hill, with a dense concentration of water bodies including Muckwa Lake, Lullaby Lake, and Northern Light Lake. Movement through this timbered backcountry relies on a complex system of forest roads and historic paths like the Gunflint Trail and the Gunflint To Grand Portag Trl. Numerous specialized spurs, such as the Old Greenwood Spur C Trl and Pistol Lake Spur A Trl, indicate decades of forest management and access to the region's isolated interior lakes. The map also traces the modern Gunflint Trails Snowmobile Trl, reflecting the area's transition into a premier recreational destination within the northern woods.
