2022 Map of South Long Lake

About this map

Upper South Long Lake and Lower Long Lake dominate this landscape southeast of Brainerd, where the Nokasippi River and Sand Cr define the hydrologic character of the region. The map captures a transition between residential development and the natural wetlands characteristic of this part of Minnesota. Local genealogy interests are well-served by the inclusion of several burial grounds, including Maple Grove Cem, Bethel Lutheran Cem, and Hillside Cem, which are scattered among the township sections. Recreational infrastructure is prominent via the Crow Wing Southern Loop Trl, which winds through the central and eastern portions of the map. The road network, featuring names like Town Line Rd and Five Mile Rd, reflects the rigid section-line surveying of the Public Land Survey System while navigating around natural obstacles like Russell Lake and Mud Lake.
