About this map

The Mississippi River winds through the southwestern corner of this survey, defining the southern boundaries of Cohasset and Grand Rapids. This area of Itasca County is defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and wetlands, where large bodies of water like Shoal Lake and Prairie Lake dominate the landscape. The hydrography is intricate, featuring numerous smaller basins such as Little Bass Lake, Stevens Lake, and McAvity Lake, often connected by minor streams like Hay Cr and Pohl Cr.

Settlement patterns follow the lakefronts and riverbanks, with notable local landmarks including Mankie Island and Mallard Point. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies significant sites such as Wildwood Cem near the river and the Old Soldiers Cem located further east. The transition from the developed areas of Grand Rapids to the more open, marshy terrain of Dethloff Slough and MacDougal Bay illustrates the varied character of the Iron Range region.
