1968 Map of Kroschel NW

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Snake River carves a winding path through this region of the Aitkin and Kanabec county border, defining a landscape dominated by conservation and timber management. In the late 1960s, large tracts of land were dedicated to state-managed resources, including the Solana State Forest in the north and the Snake River State Forest in the south. These public lands are interspersed with specialized conservation zones like the Lake Five State Wildlife Management Area and the Bean Dam State Wildlife Management Area. The map reveals a sparsely settled interior where the economy is tied to natural resources, evidenced by a Gravel Pit and numerous watercourses like Cowans Brook and Chelsea Brook. Subtle human imprints such as a Radio Tower and various Jeep Trails offer clues to the communication and transport networks used by forestry workers and local outdoorsmen during this era.
