2016 Map of Nickerson

About this map

Nickerson and the small settlement of Nemadji anchor this landscape along the border of Carlton and Pine Counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways including the Nemadji River, Willow River, and several significant basins such as Oak Lake and Wolf Lake. The Soo Line Trl cuts across the northern half of the map, following a legacy rail corridor that once served the timber and agricultural needs of eastern Minnesota. Genealogists will find the Oak Lake Community Cem near the intersection of Koecher Rd and Shadow Oak Rd. This 2016 survey reflects a region where old homestead roads like Old Hwy 23 and Fire Tower Rd provide access to the wetlands and woods that dominate the area, illustrating the enduring layout of rural townships such as t45n r18w.
