2016 Map of Slate Lake East

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this section of Lake County, where a dense network of waterways and timber trails defines the landscape. The Snake River and Stony River meander through the terrain, connecting a vast series of glacial lakes including McDougal Lake, Slate Lake, and the remote Jackpot Lake. The area's character is heavily influenced by forest management and recreation, evidenced by numerous designated routes such as the Stony Spur Trail, Jackpot Trail, and the Stony Spur Summer route. Transportation is anchored by Minnesota Highway 1 in the southern portion, providing access to landmarks like Jack Pine Mtn. The naming of features like Camp Buckskin Road and Eikala Lake Access points to the area's established role in Northwoods outdoor life and seasonal residency.
