About this map

The Kettle River defines the central topography of this Pine County landscape, winding southward through a complex network of wetlands and riverine features. Notable water-driven landmarks include the Big Eddy and the winding Hords Slough Kettle River, which create a distinct riparian environment punctuated by Maple Island and Blueberry Island. The area is characterized by low-lying marshlands and several small tributaries, such as Cedar Cr and Redhorse Cr, that feed into the primary river system.

Upland features like Bear Hill rise above the surrounding basin, offering a glimpse into the glacial relief typical of eastern Minnesota. While the area remains largely rural, a grid of local roads and townships like T40N R20W provides a framework for the scattered homesteads and natural resources surrounding Cedar Lake. This 2019 survey documents a landscape where traditional watercourses and modern rural infrastructure intersect, preserving the names of local terrain features for researchers and residents.
