2023 Map of Channing

About this map

Channing stands as a primary junction in this part of Dickinson County, where the local road network and settlement patterns reflect the area's history of logging and rail transit. To the north, the small community of Floodwood is situated near Parlemee Lake and Cameron Lake, marking a landscape heavily defined by its glacial hydrology. The Michigamme River and Ford River wind through the township lines, accompanied by numerous water bodies like Sawyer Lake and Silver Lake that are central to the local geography. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the Channing Cem located south of the main town site, near the intersection of Byers Rd. This survey documents a quiet rural corridor where small clusters of homes and seasonal cabins at Golden and along the various lake shores constitute the primary development among the wetlands and timber.
