Interesting Fact: The Crosslake Lumber Company was the hub of many lumber operations from the 1890s until 1910. Tracks from Cross Lake spiderwebbed outward into undeveloped forest throughout the area. Logs from places including the Blind Lake logging camp would go to Cross Lake where they would then be sent by river to Brainerd, Little Falls, St. Cloud and St. Paul to mills where they would be processed into lumber.
