2016 Map of Island

About this map

Island Farm Swamp dominates this landscape on the border of Aitkin and Saint Louis counties, reflecting the complex wetlands of northern Minnesota. The settlement of Island and the railway-associated Hartley Spur are situated in the northeastern corner, connected by St Vincent Rd and Robinson Rd. This 2016 survey shows a territory defined by its hydrology and forest management, where Sixteen Cr and the E Savanna River wind through the lowlands. The presence of the Hedbom Forest Trl and Hedbom Trl suggests a modern focus on timber and recreational access within these vast marshes. Significant terrain features like Big Island and water bodies such as Potshot Lake provide clear landmarks in an otherwise saturated environment.
