About this map

Naytahwaush sits at the intersection of several regional roads in this north-central Minnesota landscape, anchored by the waters of North Twin Lake. The settlement serves as a focal point for the surrounding area, which is characterized by an intricate network of wetlands and glacial lakes. The local cemetery sites, Samuel Memorial Cem and Indian Cem, are positioned near the town, providing clear landmarks for those researching the community's heritage.

The hydrology of the region is defined by the Wild Rice River and its various tributaries, including Twin Cr and Schimmelhorn Cr. Further north, The Ranch appears as a named landmark among a dense cluster of water bodies such as Rice Lake, Fairbanks Lake, and Lizzard Lake. The map's detailed inventory of these features, alongside many smaller ponds like Buresh Lake and Peabody Lake, illustrates a territory where the natural water cycle heavily influences the local road network and settlement patterns.
