2019 Map of Typo Lake

About this map

Typo Lake and the branching waters of the Sunrise River system dominate this landscape on the border of Isanti, Anoka, and Chisago Counties. The area is defined by a dense cluster of glacial lakes, including the central Fawn Lake, Hoffman Lake, and the expansive Martin Lake to the south near the community of Martin-Lake. Small settlements like Weber and the established town of Stacy anchor the local road network, which transitions from organized grids to winding routes dictated by the wetlands. Local heritage is preserved in several rural burial grounds such as Linwood Township Cem and the Oxford-Union Cem, while the northern portion of the map shows the growth of North Branch. The presence of the West Branch Sunrise River and its various tributaries illustrates the complex hydrology that has historically shaped the development of these lakefront communities.
