2022 Map of Tulaby Lake

About this map

Elbow Lake Village sits at the junction of three counties in this northern Minnesota lake country, where the borders of Mahnomen, Clearwater, and Becker counties converge. This water-rich landscape is defined by its glacial kettle lakes and wetlands, ranging from the large basin of Tulaby Lake to the more secluded Sawmill Lake and Little Elbow Lake. The terrain is punctuated by Strawberry Mtn, providing a subtle topographic break in an area otherwise dominated by basins like Bass Lake and Schantzen Lake. The map reveals a dense network of local access roads such as Bald Eagle Haven Rd and Fishermans Wharf Rd, illustrating the area's development for seasonal recreation and lakeside residency. Smaller water bodies like Johnson Lake, Wilson Lake, and Pike Lake further highlight the intricate hydrography that has shaped the local economy and settlement patterns.
