2016 Map of Birchdale SE

About this map

The W Fork Black River meanders across this northern Minnesota landscape, defining the drainage patterns of a region characterized by extensive wetlands and low-lying terrain. This 2016 survey of the area southeast of Birchdale highlights the intersection of several rural transportation routes, including Co Rd 86 and Co Rd 104, which serve as the primary conduits through the remote wilderness of Koochiching County. To the southwest, Lost Lake appears as a distinct hydrological feature amidst the surrounding marshland. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, documenting the boundaries of townships such as t159n r27w and t158n r26w. This layout reflects the systematic division of the land, where section lines often dictate the placement of local infrastructure like Town Rd 117.
