About this map

The Clearwater River winds through this rural landscape at the intersection of Polk, Red Lake, and Pennington Counties. This area in Northwestern Minnesota is defined by an extensive network of water management features, including the Judicial Ditch Number One, Judicial Ditch Number Three, and Judicial Ditch Number Four. These engineered waterways speak to the region's agricultural history, where reclaiming wetlands was essential for local farming development. Scattered across the section lines are important community landmarks such as Nazareth Cem and Bethany Lutheran Cem, providing valuable touchstones for genealogists researching family ties in the townships south of the river.
