2010 Map of Stewart Lake

About this map

Glacial lakes and wetlands dominate this portion of Crow Wing County, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of water bodies and marshy lowlands. At the center of the sheet, Stewart Lake and Island Lake are prominent features, flanked by the unique identifiers of Big Cranberry Lake and Little Cranberry Lake. The map reveals a transition between dense hydrography and a sparse road network that follows the natural contours of the land. Northward, the topography is punctuated by Peterson Lake, Stony Lake, and the curiously named Dirty House Lake. Transportation in the area relies on routes like Old Grade Rd and County Hwy-54, which navigate the spaces between basins like Blind Lake and smaller tributaries such as Thompson Creek. The arrangement of these water features suggests a terrain shaped by receding ice, leaving behind the kettle lakes and bogs characteristic of the region.
