2010 Map of Pitt

About this map

The Pitt Post Office and the small settlement of Pitt serve as the primary landmarks in this northern landscape near the international border. Situated south of the Rainy River, which defines the boundary between the United States and Canada, the area is characterized by a dense network of watercourses that dictate the movement of both water and roads. The Winter Road River and Miller Creek cut through the central terrain, while the southern reaches are shaped by the West Fork Baudette River and the main Baudette River. A rigid grid of county highways, including County Hwy-167 and County Hwy-3, imposes a geometric order over the meandering paths of Peppermint Creek and its tributaries, illustrating the systematic rural development of Lake of the Woods County in the early 21st century.
