2022 Map of Clementson

About this map

Clementson sits at the confluence of the Rainy River and the Rapid River, serving as a focal point for this northern Minnesota landscape along the Canadian border. The terrain is defined by a complex network of waterways, including the East Fork Rapid River and Eldens Rapids, which drain the low-lying wetlands of Lake of the Woods and Koochiching counties. Local history and genealogy are preserved at the Silver Creek Cem and Clementson Cem, which mark early settlement patterns in an area largely dominated by timber and water resources. Numerous seasonal and secondary roads, such as Co Hwy 19 and Co Hwy 18, provide access to the interior creeks like Silver Cr and Gormley Cr that feed the international boundary waters.
