2019 Map of Becker

About this map

Big Lake and Becker anchor this 2019 survey of the Sherburne County landscape, where the Snake River and Elk River wind through a complex system of glacial wetlands and sloughs. The area is defined by a grid of agricultural land and residential growth, punctuated by significant local landmarks such as Schroeder Airport and several historic burial grounds including Danish Cem, Snake River Cem, and Becker Cem. The hydrography of the region is notably diverse, featuring numerous named water bodies like Duffy Lake, Eagle Lake, and expansive wetland areas such as Danzel Slough and Johnson Slough. This map captures the modern infrastructure of the region, from the residential streets of the growing settlements to the network of county roads like Co Rd 67 and Co Rd 47 that connect the farmsteads and rural subdivisions.
