About this map

Chippewa Indian Reservation lands and the adjacent Dixon Indian Reservation dominate this Northern Minnesota landscape during a period of transition in land use and drainage. The survey illustrates an extensive network of drainage ditches, such as those alongside State Road No. 19 and State Road No. 20, reflecting early twentieth-century efforts to reclaim wetland for agriculture or timber. Small settlements like Alvwood, Rosy, and Louis anchor the remote grid, while numerous unnamed schools are scattered near the banks of the Third River. Large bodies of water, including Moose Lake, Decker Lake, and the northern reaches of Winnibigoshish Lake, define the local topography. This military-compiled sheet also identifies several townships and the 12th Standard Parallel North, providing a detailed view of the Beltrami and Itasca County border region.
