2010 Map of Chase Brook NE

About this map

Moose Creek and Bartons Brook wind through this northern Minnesota landscape in Lake of the Woods County, defining the drainage patterns of an area characterized by its wide-open wetlands and low-lying terrain. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section lines and gravel roads, including County Hwy-1 and County Hwy-77, which provide the primary access to these sparsely settled reaches. These roads intersect at right angles, typical of the public land survey system in the Midwest, where large tracts of land remain dedicated to timber and peat management. The lack of named settlements or major structures emphasizes the remote nature of this region during the early 21st century, making it a valuable reference for tracing the exact hydrography and rural infrastructure of the county's interior before later changes in land use or drainage.
