2013 Map of Fisher

About this map

Fisher sits at a major oxbow of the Red Lake River, where the serpentine waterway carves a complex path through the flat agricultural landscape of Polk County. This region is defined by a dense network of drainage engineering, evidenced by numerous named channels such as County Ditch Number One Hundred Seventeen and County Ditch Number One Hundred Thirtyfour. These systems support the vast fields surrounding the settlement of Freeman and the central hub of Fisher itself. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial sites, including the Fisher Lutheran Cem, Greenwood Cem, Erickson Cem, and the original Fisher Cem. The map also traces the convergence of infrastructure where Us-2 and Co HWY-15 meet the riparian corridor, illustrating how transportation routes have adapted to the winding river and the expansive Grand Marais Creek drainage basin.
