No. FEMA maps it in Zone X, outside the 1% annual chance floodplain, and no wetlands are mapped on it. The nearest mapped water is Sibley Lake, about 761 ft from the parcel line.

How steep is it?

Flat. The USGS terrain model puts the slope near the center at about 1.1%, at roughly 1,276 ft above sea level.
