2019 Map of Ash River SW

About this map

Superior National Forest defines the character of this northern Minnesota landscape, where a network of water and wilderness trails marks the terrain. The central drainage is dominated by the Ash River, which winds northward toward the Canadian border, joined by tributaries such as Kinmount Cr and Fawn Cr. To the east, the Black Duck River cuts through the forest, while the E Br Rat Root River touches the western reaches. This 2019 survey shows a modern recreational landscape where historic logging routes have evolved into named forest roads and recreational corridors. The Arrowhead Snowmobile Trail traverses the center of the sheet, supplemented by local routes like Adams Hill Trl and Sheep Ranch Rd, illustrating the importance of seasonal access in this wooded backcountry.
