About this map

The Wild Rice River meanders across this Mahnomen County landscape, carving a path through a region defined by its dense concentration of glacial lakes and wetlands. The small settlement of Beaulieu serves as a local hub, situated near the Saint Joseph's Catholic Cem. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, where agriculture and natural hydrology dictate the layout of the land.

Evidence of the region's spiritual and community centers is found at Saint Joseph's Cem and nearby Midway. Water bodies such as Chief Lake, Church Lake, and Fish Lake dominate the geography, connected by smaller tributaries like Whiskey Cr. The map preserves the specific road network of the time, including Co ST Aid HWY 3 and Co ST Aid HWY 14, which link these scattered settlements and water features.
