2019 Map of Wahkon North

About this map

Mille Lacs Lake dominates this northern Minnesota landscape, with its shoreline and intricate chain of islands defining the southern and eastern edges of the sheet. At the southern terminus of the lake, the settlement of Wahkon sits at the head of Wahkon Bay, where local roads like Lake Shore Blvd and Field St provide access to the water. The map traces the boundary between Aitkin and Mille Lacs counties along the northern waters, passing near Hunters Point. To the east, the shoreline creates sheltered areas like Sunset Bay and protects a series of small landforms including Hennepin Island, Spider Island, and Half Moon Island. The development pattern near the water is evidenced by a dense network of residential streets such as Tailor Rd and Tuxedo Rd, suggesting the area's importance for lakeside living and seasonal recreation in the early 21st century.
