2016 Map of Grasston

About this map

Grasston stands as a focal point near the eastern boundary of Kanabec County, situated where the terrain transitions toward the neighboring Pine County line. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and watercourses, most notably the winding path of the Snake River, which draws in tributaries like Mud Creek and Rice Creek. This 2016 survey illustrates a largely rural township structure, anchored by several prominent water bodies including Grass Lake, Sells Lake, and the Twin Lakes. For those researching local families, the map identifies two key burial sites: Grasston Union Cem near the town center and Grass Lake Cem further south. The presence of engineered waterways like County Ditch Number One and County Ditch Number Five highlights the historical and ongoing management of this marshy Minnesota environment for agricultural and residential use.
