1969 Map of Ray SW

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Duluth Winnipeg and Pacific railroad cuts through the northeastern corner of this Koochiching County landscape, a region defined by extensive wetlands and meandering watercourses. The Rat Root River dominates the central and eastern portions of the map, twisting through a network of marshes and low-lying woodland. Southward, Beaver Brook winds across the terrain, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Minnesota north woods. A prominent Winter Trail provides a historical look at seasonal navigation through these damp lowlands, where standard passage was restricted by the soft earth of the peatlands. While largely devoid of permanent settlements, the area shows evidence of local infrastructure and materials sourcing through scattered Gravel Pits, often situated near the forest trails and the railroad corridor.
