2019 Map of Winter Road Lake

About this map

Winter Road Lake sits at the center of this remote northern landscape, marking a significant water body within the wetlands that define the border between Roseau and Lake of the Woods counties. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of marshes and low-lying ground, typical of the Minnesota bog country. Human presence is primarily defined by a series of primitive routes and forest roads that cut through the landscape, such as Krull Trl, Carps Trl, and Cole Forest Rd. These tracks provide the primary access to the interior for conservation and recreation, while Nelson Trl SW skirts the southern reaches. The map documents the intricate sectional boundaries and township lines, providing a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System in this relatively undeveloped corner of the state.
