About this map

Puposky sits at the heart of this lake-heavy landscape in northern Minnesota, positioned at the narrows where Puposky Lake meets its northern extension. The terrain is a complex network of wetlands and interconnected water bodies, from the flow of the Mud River and Pike Cr in the north to the meandering path of the Turtle River in the south. This hydrologic pattern defines the local road network, where routes like Great Divide Rd NW and Puposky Rd NW navigate around the larger basins of Lake Julia and Little Turtle Lake.

For genealogists and local historians, the placement of the Turtle Lake Cem near the southern shoreline of Little Turtle Lake provides a specific point of interest. The map documents the rural development of the era, showing a mix of established county highways like Co Hwy 13 and residential access roads such as Lavelle Dr NW and Stephani Rd NW. Notable smaller lakes including Grenn Lake, Bog Lake, and Lake Campbell further illustrate the water-dominated geography of Beltrami County.
