2013 Map of Rum River

About this map

The W Br Rum River and Rum River flow through this section of central Minnesota, defining a landscape where the boundaries of Morrison, Benton, and Mille Lacs counties converge. The hydrology of the region is further detailed by the Saint Francis River in the southwest and smaller tributaries like Stony Brook and Tibbetts Brook. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural grid of township roads such as Nature Rd and Ronneby Rd NE that navigate the wetland-rich terrain typical of the area north of Ronneby and Foley. The map captures the subtle elevation changes and numerous small depressions that characterize this glaciated river basin before the modern expansion of these rural corridors.
