2013 Map of Borea

About this map

Borea and the surrounding Douglas County countryside are defined by a complex network of waterways feeding toward Lake Superior. The Nemadji River serpentines through the center of the map, joined by numerous tributaries including Balsam Cr, Miller Cr, and Rock Cr. Small settlements like Dedham, Boylston, and Dewey are positioned along the primary transport corridors, such as E Military Rd and S State Road 35. In the southeastern corner, the terrain drops at Little Manitou Falls, a notable geological feature where Rock Cr flows toward the larger river system. The map also shows Anton in the north, situated near the Little Pokegama River. This 2013 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where family-named roads like S Jake Schmid Rd and S Reed Merrill Rd indicate long-standing local ties to the land.
