1959 Map of Pine River

About this map

Pine River serves as the focal point of this late 1950s survey, situated where the Northern Pacific railroad intersects the waterway. The town is surrounded by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands, including Norway Lake to the north and the extensive Rice Lake Swamp to the west. This landscape illustrates a mid-century transition in Cass County, where rural life revolved around community hubs like Maple Hill Ch and the Anderson Cem located near Maple Hill.
