About this map

The Mississippi River winds through this northern Minnesota landscape, connecting a complex network of glacial basins and wetlands in the late 1990s. The convergence of the Chippewa National Forest and the Leech Lake Indian Reservation defines the land use of the region, where large water bodies like Andrusia Lake, Wolf Lake, and Cass Lake dominate the geography.

Evidence of small-scale settlement and community life is found at the hamlet of Farris, where the Farris Cem and nearby East Side Cemetery provide touchstones for local genealogy. The map captures specialized land management areas such as the Bemidji Game Refuge and the Wolf Lake State Wildlife Management Area, alongside recreational markers like the Minnie-Wa-Kan Camp. A modern Pipeline and scattered industrial sites, including a Powerplant and various sandpits, reflect the infrastructure supporting this lake-country environment.
