2013 Map of Kroschel

About this map

Kroschel lies at the heart of this landscape where the S Br Grindstone River and Pokegama Cr wind through the wetlands of Kanabec and Pine counties. The settlement patterns here are defined by a grid of rural roads like Beaver Tail Rd and 320th Ave that connect scattered farmsteads and natural landmarks. The presence of Trinity Cem in the north near the boundary indicates a long-standing local community structure. Numerous small lakes, including Thirteen Lake, Featherbed Lake, and White Lily Lake, are scattered across the terrain, illustrating the glacial character of this part of Minnesota. The map also captures the upper reaches of the N Br Grindstone River as it flows toward Grindstone Lake in the northeast corner, reflecting a region where water and wood have traditionally driven local life.
