2016 Map of Nett Lake River SW

About this map

The Little Fork River carves a winding, meandering path through this Koochiching County landscape, defining the topography of the northeastern corner. Much of the surrounding terrain is dominated by extensive wetlands, characteristic of Northern Minnesota's hydrology, where the Rapid River flows eastward to join the larger drainage system. Human presence is limited to the periphery, marked primarily by the peripheral reach of River Rd in the north and the straight cut of Section 10 Rd near the river bends. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent natural state of the region, showing how the intricate river oxbows and marshy lowlands dictate the placement of transportation routes and township boundaries like t65n r24w.
