About this map

Wind River and McCloud Cr define the drainage of this wetland-rich landscape in northern Koochiching County. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of marshes and low-lying ground, intersected by a straight-line grid of rural access routes. Notable thoroughfares include Frontier Farmers Rd and State Rd, which provide passage through the townships of t159n r28w and t159n r27w. In the southeast, Lost Lake appears as a small pocket of open water amidst the pervasive wetlands. This late-2010s survey illustrates a region where land use is heavily dictated by the water table, showing how remote infrastructure like Ut 114 and Ut 393 navigates the challenging Minnesota bogs.
