2019 Map of Graceton

About this map

Graceton serves as the primary focal point of this northern Lake of the Woods County landscape, situated along a network of county roads near the Canadian border. The terrain is defined by a complex of slow-moving waterways including the Winter Road River and the winding channels of Peppermint Cr and Little Peppermint Cr. These drainage patterns are characteristic of the peatlands and low-lying woods found in this part of Minnesota, where the land was historically divided into rigid sections of the Public Land Survey System as evidenced by the township boundaries like t161n r33w. For local historians and genealogists, the map preserves the locations of vital community landmarks such as Graceton Cem and the distinctly named Potamo-Parke Cem, which sit amidst a grid of rural routes like Co Rd 68 and Pitt Grade Rd SW.
