2016 Map of Juneberry Ridge

About this map

Juneberry Ridge and Moose Point define the subtle topography of this northern landscape near the border of Roseau and Kittson counties. The map reveals an extensive system of water management essential for the region, characterized by long, engineered waterways such as State Ditch Number Seventy-two and State Ditch Number Fifty. These features illustrate the historical effort to drain the marshy terrain of the Red River Valley for agricultural use and settlement. The rural infrastructure is represented by a grid of local routes, including Co Hwy 7 and Co Rd 24, which provide access to the remote sections of these borderlands. This 2016 survey documents the enduring spatial organization of the Public Land Survey System, marked by township boundaries like t162n r45w and t162n r44w, which continue to shape the development and property lines of this northwestern Minnesota region.
