2013 Map of Alborn

About this map

The Artichoke River defines the central corridor of this Saint Louis County landscape, winding south from Alborn through Coleraine Junction toward its confluence with the Cloquet River. This 2013 survey illustrates a sparsely populated region of Northern Minnesota, where small settlements like Culver and Burnett are linked by a grid of rural roads and established highways such as Co HWY-7. Local history is preserved in sites like the Spruce Hill Cem and Industrial Cem, alongside legacy place names like Prosit and Arlberg. The map documents a landscape characterized by its water bodies, including Artichoke Lake, Schelin Lake, and Eier Lake, which sit amidst a network of township roads and county routes that have long supported the area's rural economy and access to its glacial lake features.
