1999 Map of Ericsburg

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Ericsburg sits at the northern edge of this Northwoods landscape, where the meandering Rat Root River winds through the expansive Koochiching State Forest. The geography is defined by a complex network of wetlands and seasonal access routes, notably the numerous Winter Trail markings that crisscross the low-lying terrain. These trails indicate a landscape where travel was historically dictated by the freezing of the ground, a common pattern in the timber and peatlands of northern Minnesota. In the northeast, the river broadens into the wide reaches of Rat Root Lake, while the presence of a Gravel Pit suggests localized extraction for road maintenance in this isolated forest region. The map preserves the 1960s topographic data updated with late-1990s planimetry, capturing the enduring isolation and specific transport patterns of the border country.
