The forest was established as the Minnesota Forest Reserve on June 27, 1902, with passage of the Morris Act.〔32 Stat., 400〕 While this act mainly addressed the disposition of unallotted lands on Ojibwe Indian reservations in Minnesota, of the Chippewas of the Mississippi, Cass Lake, Leech Lake, and Winnibigoshish Indian reservations were designated as a Forest Reserve.
The Reserve was re-established as the Minnesota National Forest on May 23, 1908.〔35 Stat., 268〕 In 1928 the forest was renamed in honor of the Chippewa Indians from whose land the forest was created.
