About this map

Seelye Brook winds through this rural landscape on the border of Isanti and Anoka counties, anchoring a region of scattered small-town centers and low-lying wetlands. The settlement of Crown sits at the intersection of local routes, while the community of Oxlip marks the northern edge of the sheet. The area's agricultural and rural character is punctuated by several small airfields, including Swanson Field Airport and Aero-Plain Airport, reflecting the local aviation infrastructure in this part of Minnesota.

Local history is preserved in several rural burial grounds such as Lakeside Cem, Zion Cem, and Oak View Cem, which offer significant research value for genealogists studying the families of the surrounding townships. Numerous small water bodies like German Lake, Blue Lake, and Negro Lake define the terrain, interspersed with localized landmarks such as the Bar None Ranch near the southern boundary.
