2013 Map of Redby

About this map

Redby sits on the southern shore of the massive Red Lake, serving as a focal point for the surrounding northern Minnesota wilderness. This landscape is defined by an intricate network of water bodies, including Lake Shemahgun, Tenmile Lake, and the winding Mud River. The region's history as a center for timber and land management is reflected in the extensive road network, such as the evocative Lumberjack Rd NW, and the presence of the Mud River Lookout Tower. Local movement across the terrain is facilitated by a dense grid of reservation highways, including Res Hwy 1 and Res Hwy 14, which connect smaller water features like Williams Lake and Chain Lake to the primary settlement. The abundance of named lakes, from Gibibwisher Lake to Little Rice Lake, underscores the area's aquatic character and importance for local navigation and geography.
