2019 Map of Jacobson

About this map

The Mississippi River snakes through the dense wetlands and forest of northern Minnesota, forming the southern border of this landscape near the settlement of Jacobson. This area, situated where the Itasca Co Aitkin Co line meets, is defined by its complex hydrology and timberland access. The Swan River flows south across the eastern half of the map, joining the Mississippi near several local thoroughfares such as Co Rd 85. To the north, the small community of Warba sits near the edge of a landscape dotted with numerous glacial features, including Shallow Lake, McGuire Lake, and Austin Lake. The prevalence of roads like the Great River Rd and Pine Ridge Forest Rd highlights the region's historical reliance on river-and-road connectivity for local movement through the vast northern woods.
