2022 Map of Johnson Landing

About this map

The Big Fork River meanders extensively through this heavily wetland-dominated landscape in Koochiching County, showing the characteristic oxbows and tight bends of a low-gradient waterway. This 2022 survey documents a remote section of northern Minnesota where the hydrology is defined by a dense network of marshes and small tributaries, including Reilly Brook, Macafee Brook, and Reilly Cr. Human infrastructure is sparse, limited primarily to Dentaybow Rd and Ut 83 which provide access through the dense wetlands. The map clearly delineates township boundaries such as t65n r26w and t64n r27w, which are essential for property research and understanding the Public Land Survey System in this wilderness area. The lack of named settlements reflects the primary use of the land for timber and conservation rather than permanent habitation.
