The borderlands of the Upper Midwest are defined here by a dense network of forest roads and small waterways straddling the Minnesota and Wisconsin line. The settlement of Foxboro serves as a primary reference point in the north, while the smaller community of Harlis sits further south near the Carlton and Pine County boundary. The landscape is characterized by its drainage patterns, notably the Net River and its tributary, the Little Net River, which wind through the western sections. Cultural and genealogical interest centers on the Summit Cemetery located near the state line, and the numerous township roads that provide access to the hinterlands, such as Harlis State Forest Rd and Patzau Foxboro Rd. This survey provides a modern view of the rural infrastructure in a region where forestry and remote settlement predominate.
