About this map

The Mississippi River winds through the heart of Crow Wing County, separating the regional hub of Brainerd from its neighbor Baxter. This modern survey documents the dense grid of Brainerd’s north side, where streets like L St NE and C St NE lead toward the Evergreen Cem and the industrial edge of the Cuyuna Range. To the southwest, the settlement of Barrows sits near the river's bend, marking a transition from urban development to the wetlands and small lakes characteristic of the region.

Institutional landmarks including the Central Lakes College - Brainerd and the Crow Wing County Judicial Center anchor the downtown area. The landscape is defined by its water, from the broad expanse of Rice Lake in the northeast to smaller features like Boom Lake and First Island. Further south, the terrain opens into a network of trails, including the Crow Wing Southern Loop Trl, and the airfield at Jackson Field.
