2016 Map of Whipholt

About this map

Chippewa National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape on the southern shores of Leech Lake. The small settlements of Whipholt and Brevik serve as local hubs along the water, where the terrain breaks into a dense network of smaller basins like Three Island Lake, Gooseberry Lake, and Moccasin Lake. This modern survey documents the extensive recreational infrastructure of the early 21st century, including segments of the N Country National Scenic Trail and the Chippewa "C" GIA Snomobile Tra. The map details the intricate shoreline of Headquarters Bay and numerous islands including Bear Island and Little Bear Island, reflecting a landscape defined by timber management and lakeside residency. Old logging routes and forest roads like Old Grade Rd and White Rock Ln NW crisscross the wooded interior between the many glacial lakes.
