About this map

Mille Lacs Lake defines the northern edge of this landscape, where the settlements of Wahkon, Bayview, and Cove front the water. The map detail highlights the southern reaches of Cove Bay and Wahkon Bay, including the nearby Mulybys Island. Inland, the terrain is characterized by extensive wetlands and pools, such as Ernst Pool and Korsness Pool, which are fed by meandering drainage systems like Black Brook.

For genealogists and local historians, the Foster Cem is a significant landmark situated near the lake shore between Bayview and Wahkon. The road network provides a detailed view of local access to the shoreline via Co Rd 17 and Co Rd 19, as well as the transition into the managed lands of the State D N R Wildlife Mgmt Area Rd. This modern survey reflects the enduring character of this resort and fishing region, balancing residential lakefront development with the surrounding natural marshlands.
