Much of the middle and upper county is taken up with the two sections of Red Lake. The county terrain consists of rolling low tree-covered hills, dotted with lakes and ponds.[5] The terrain slopes to the east and north with its highest point near its southwest corner, at 1,457' (444m) ASL.[6] The county has a total area of 3,056 square miles (7,920 km2), of which 2,505 square miles (6,490 km2) is land and 551 square miles (1,430 km2) (18%) is water.[7] It is the fourth-largest county in Minnesota by area.
