2010 Map of Ericsburg NW

About this map

The Rat Root River meanders through the northern reaches of this Koochiching County landscape, defining the local drainage patterns alongside Beaver Brook. The terrain is characterized by its hydrological features, most notably Moose Lake situated in the southern half of the quadrangle. Transportation in this part of northern Minnesota is anchored by a mix of infrastructure, including the long-distance Blue Ox Trl which cuts diagonally across the northwestern corner. Local access is provided by roads such as County Hwy 97 and Galvin Rd, reflecting the sparse but established rural network typical of the region as it appeared in 2010. The lack of concentrated settlements highlights the area's focus on its natural waterways and recreational or timber-related corridors.
