2013 Map of Nimrod

About this map

The Crow Wing River snakes through this landscape in Wadena County, creating distinctive features such as the Kossila Oxbow and several stretches of moving water, including Butterfield Rapids and Walkins Rapids. Near the southern edge, the small settlement of Nimrod sits at the junction of MN-227 and Co HWY 26, positioned where the Cat River flows toward its confluence. The terrain is defined by a high concentration of wetlands and small lakes like Rice Lake, Mud Lake, and Yaeger Lake, alongside the sprawling Wire Grass Meadow. Local history and recreation are centered around sites like the Finnish Cem and public access points at the Huntersville Forest Campground and Andersons Crossing Campground. The Mary Brown Bridge provides a notable crossing over the river, linking the rural road network that services this wooded and water-rich region of central Minnesota.
