2019 Map of Snowbank Lake

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this aquatic landscape of interconnected waterways and portage trails. The survey highlights a complex network of glacial lakes including the sprawling Snowbank Lake, Parent Lake, and the western reaches of Lake One. The human footprint is defined largely by historic trekking routes, notably the Kekekabic Trail and the Powwow Trail, which cross the interior through heavy woods. Birch Island and Fire Island stand out within the larger water bodies, while smaller ponds like Blackstone Lake and Secret Lake are tucked into the northern forest. Navigation through this wilderness relies on established paths such as the Secret to Flash and Flash-Snowbank routes. Near the western edge, the FHA Fernberg Tower serves as a landmark for those traveling along Fernberg Road.
