About this map

The Snake River and its various tributaries define the hydrology of this Kanabec County landscape, where the southern portion of Mora serves as a primary hub. The map illustrates a complex network of waterways, including the meandering Groundhouse River and the Ann River, which feeds into the central Fish Lake. These rivers once played a critical role in the region's logging and transport history before the modern road grid, represented here by MN-65 and MN-23, became the dominant infrastructure.

Local history and genealogy are centered around established landmarks such as Brunswick and family-linked sites like Saint Marys Cem and Riverside Cem. The survey provides detail on the varied glacial topography, from the cluster of smaller basins including Devils Lake and Kent Lake to the more isolated Pennington Lake in the southeast. This record shows the developed corridors along Riverside St and Highway 65 S during the early 21st century.
