2013 Map of Kettle River

About this map

Kettle River serves as the primary settlement hub on this northern Minnesota landscape, situated at the junction of MN-73 and Co HWY-12. The terrain is defined by a dense drainage network where the Dead Moose River and Silver Cr feed into the larger Kettle River system. For those researching local family histories, the map identifies significant sites such as Saint Joseph's Cem and Nordland Cem, which anchor the rural community. The geography transitions across the Carlton Co and Pine Co line, showing a pattern of long-established farmsteads and rural roads like Butkiewicz Rd and Korhonen Rd. The meandering course of the Split Rock River cuts through the central portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex water table of this Northwoods region.
