2015 Map of Poquettes Lake

About this map

Poquettes Lake sits at the heart of this glacial landscape on the border of Burnett and Washburn counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of water bodies, including Rice Lake, Lipsett Lake, and Glendenning Lake, which are linked by smaller tributaries like Bashaw Brook and Montgomery Cr. The presence of Indian Mounds Rd in the north indicates the region's ancient archaeological significance, while the Greendale Cem provides a focal point for local genealogical research. The Yellow River meanders through the central and northern sections, carving a path through the low-lying wetlands. This 2015 survey reflects a rural landscape shaped by post-glacial topography, where the distribution of roads like Swiss Chalet Rd and Bashaw Lake Rd follows the natural contours of the lakes and springs, such as Bashaw Trout Springs.
