About this map

The Wild Rice River meanders through the townships of Beaulieu, Clover, and La Garde in this late 1960s survey. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and water bodies, including Long Lake, Lizzard Lake, and the expansive North Twin Lake. Near the southeastern shore of the larger lake, the settlement of Naytahwaush serves as a local focal point, characterized by its residential clusters and the Nursing Home.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several notable sites, such as the Indian Cem and Samuel Memorial Cem located near the village. A Roadside Park and Picnic Area highlight the recreational use of the lakeshore, while the Spillway and a Gravel Pit indicate minor infrastructure and resource extraction within the predominantly glacial terrain. The map's detail provides a clear view of the numerous named basins like Sargent Lake and Little Rice Lake that dominate the regional geography.
