2013 Map of Arthyde

About this map

Arthyde and Ellson anchor this rural landscape along the boundary of Aitkin and Pine Counties in northern Minnesota. This 2013 survey illustrates a region defined by its complex network of small waterways and wetlands, where the Snake River and Chelsey Brook meander through the western terrain. The settlement pattern is sparse, connected by a mix of established routes like Wagon Wheel Rd and more utilitarian paths such as Herubin Truck Trl and Giese Truck Trl. To the south, Rhine Lake feeds into Rhine Cr, part of a drainage system that includes Bremen Cr and Little Bremen Cr. The map provides a clear look at the transitional nature of this timber and peatland country, where logging and transport history is reflected in the naming of truck trails and rural lanes that cut through the low-lying glacial topography.
