2022 Map of Brook Park

About this map

Brook Park and the smaller community of Henriette serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this Pine County landscape, where the drainage of Pokegama Creek and its various branches, including East Pokegama Creek, defines the low-lying terrain. The map captures a largely rural, grid-based road system that transitions across the boundary between Kanabec and Pine counties. Local history is anchored by sites like the Old Lutheran Church Cemetery and the Brook Park Cemetery, which provide vital touchstones for genealogical research in this part of Minnesota. The topography is notably influenced by the winding path of Pokegama Creek, which meanders through several sections, creating a complex network of wetlands and small tributaries that likely dictated the placement of early homesteads and secondary roads such as Beaver Claw Road and Sunny Hill Road.
