2013 Map of Nett Lake River West

About this map

The Little Fork River meanders through the dense wetlands and forest of northern Koochiching County, joined by the Nett Lake River in this sparsely populated stretch of Minnesota. The landscape is defined by the hydrologic network, featuring the turbulent Deadmans Rapids along the Little Fork. Human presence is largely limited to a grid of utilitarian forest roads and logging routes, including Industrial Ave and Promersberger Rd. For genealogists and local historians, the Dentaybow Cem stands as a significant landmark near the junction of Co HWY-8 and Industrial Ave, marking the site of a community that persists primarily through its roads and final resting places. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the modern timber and transport infrastructure, where Town Road 60 and River Rd navigate the low-lying terrain adjacent to the riverbanks.
