Silver Lake in Ramsey County, Minnesota
This lake has 8 Layers or 15 Layers for HD Version
Silver Lake is a 76-acre shallow urban lake in Ramsey County, Minnesota, straddling the cities of New Brighton, Maplewood, and North St. Paul, reaching a maximum depth of 18 feet across 2 miles of heavily vegetated shoreline. The lake holds Walleye stocked annually by the MN DNR, alongside Northern Pike, Largemouth Bass, Black and White Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Tiger Muskie, Yellow Perch, and Smallmouth Bass — one of the more diverse fisheries for an urban metro lake of its size. Joy Park on the north shore and a city park on the south shore both offer fishing piers, a public beach, and shoreline fishing access for residents and visitors alike.
Situated in the northeastern Twin Cities metro just minutes from downtown St. Paul, Silver Lake sits at the heart of a densely populated and highly accessible urban lakefront corridor. The lake is managed cooperatively by Ramsey County, the MN DNR, and the surrounding cities, with ongoing aeration and water quality monitoring keeping the fishery viable despite the challenges of an urban watershed. The surrounding communities of New Brighton, Maplewood, and North St. Paul all offer parks, trails, and easy freeway access from the greater metro area.
A laser-cut wooden map of Silver Lake makes a personal and meaningful piece of wall art for any Ramsey County home, Twin Cities lake lover's space, or north metro retreat. The natural wood top layer traces the shoreline of this beloved urban lake in fine detail, while the light-to-dark blue gradient layers capture its warm, shallow character and the community pride that surrounds it. A handcrafted gift perfectly suited for Silver Lake neighbors, North St. Paul locals, and anyone with cherished memories on this accessible Twin Cities gem.

The difference between standard and HD maps is the number of layers. Standard maps have 1 land layer and 7 water layers. The HD lake maps have 1 land layer and 14 water layers. So twice the detail. The HD Maps are limited to Extra Large, XX Large, and Gigantic sizes only. On the smaller sizes the depth change of the wood is too extreme and you end up losing detail.
