2016 Map of Cromwell SE

About this map

Kettle River meanders through the northwestern portion of this Carlton County landscape, carving a path through terrain dominated by wetlands and complex water systems. This 2016 survey illustrates a rural environment shaped by drainage patterns of the W Fork Moose Horn River and Gillespie Brook, where the land is partitioned into a dense network of township and county roads. Many of these thoroughfares, such as Heikkila Rd, Nasi Rd, Reuben Johnson Rd, and Antila Rd, carry family names that reflect the heritage of the local farming and timbering communities. The presence of Leonard Cem in the southwestern quadrant provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in this part of northern Minnesota, while the absence of major urban centers highlights the area's continued reliance on its natural waterways and regional road connectivity.
