About this map

Hay River and its numerous tributaries define this corner of Barron County, where the landscape is organized by a precise grid of rural avenues. The hydrography of the region is notably dense, featuring systems such as Dorrity Creek, Quaderer Cr, and Tainter Cr that drain the undulating terrain into the larger river valley. These waterways dictated the early settlement patterns and the placement of local infrastructure during the mid-20th century.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several established burial grounds that serve the surrounding agricultural community, including Maple Grove Cem, Glenwood Cem, and Sunset Cem. The map illustrates the transition from the upper reaches of Upper Pine Cr to the more expansive wetlands near Sweeney Pond. This survey provides a clear view of the rural township boundaries, specifically the intersection of Townships 32 and 33 North across Ranges 12 and 13 West.
