2010 Map of Palisade

About this map

The Mississippi River creates a serpentine corridor through Aitkin County, meeting the Willow River just north of the village of Palisade. This 2010 survey reflects a landscape defined by water and legacy infrastructure, where the diagonal path of the Soo Line Trl marks the former route of the Soo Line Railroad. Near the river bend, the Palisade Post Office and Berglund Park Campground serve as central points for the community. To the south, a dense cluster of glacial lakes including Jenkins Lake, Long Lake, and Fleming Lake dominates the terrain, connected by a network of local roads like Nature Ave and County Hwy 69. The map illustrates a rural Minnesota setting where modern recreational use and historical transportation routes overlap within a complex wetland environment.
