About this map

The Mississippi River forms a natural boundary between Wright and Sherburne counties, anchoring the development of Monticello on its southern bank. This 2013 survey reveals a landscape where the river’s historical influence meets modern suburban expansion and recreation. The town center is marked by the Po and is flanked by several significant burial grounds, including Riverside Cem near the riverbank and Saint Henrys Cem to the south.

North of the river, the settlement of Salida sits along the road network leading toward a dense cluster of glacial water bodies like Lake Mitchell and Big Lake. The terrain is characterized by these numerous basins, ranging from the large Pelican Lake in the southeast to smaller features like Thompson Lake and Strand Lake. This map serves as an excellent resource for tracing the evolution of local infrastructure around natural landmarks like Otter Cr and the Silver Springs Golf Course.
