2010 Map of Littlefork NW

About this map

The Big Fork River meanders across this northern Minnesota landscape, forming tight oxbows and loops as it flows toward the Canadian border. This part of Koochiching County is defined by its watercourses, notably the confluence area where the Bear River joins the larger drainage system. The human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a grid of rural roads like County Hwy-1 and County Hwy-10 that cut through the low-lying terrain. One of the few designated landmarks of genealogical interest is the Riverside Cemetery, situated on a bend of the river. The map provides a detailed view of the natural hydrology and basic infrastructure of this remote timber and wetland region as it appeared in the early 21st century.
