2022 Map of Roseau NE

About this map

Roseau River meanders through the low-lying wetland terrain of northern Roseau County, defining much of the drainage pattern in this sparsely populated stretch of northern Minnesota. This landscape, as documented by the U.S. Geological Survey in the early 21st century, is characterized by vast tracts of marsh and saturated earth. The most prominent rise in the area is Minnesota Hill, which provides a subtle elevation contrast to the surrounding water-bound territory. The map illustrates the grid of local roads and county lines that segment the region, showcasing how human navigation has been adapted to the challenging hydrology of the Roseau River basin near the Canadian border.
