2013 Map of Johnson Landing

About this map

The Big Fork River meanders sharply through this portion of Koochiching County, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape dominated by slow-moving water and winding tributaries. Small streams such as Macafee Brook and Reilly Cr feed into the main river channel, which creates intricate loops across the terrain. The primary transportation corridor is MN-6, running north-south through the western half of the quadrangle, while Dentaybow Rd provides more localized access to the eastern wetlands. This 2013 survey illustrates a sparsely settled region of Northern Minnesota where the natural geography of Reilly Brook and the river valley remains the dominant characteristic, with little industrial or urban development interrupting the water-carved landscape.
