1968 Map of Rum River

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The West Branch Rum River and its various tributaries define this mid-century central Minnesota landscape, where the rural townships of Lakin and Granite Ledge overlap county lines. The area is characterized by a network of drainage and wetlands, with Tibbetts Brook and Stony Brook feeding into the river system. Social centers of the late 1960s are clearly marked, including the Lakin Ch and localized institutions like the Granite Ledge Sch and McKinley Sch. A central Townhall serves as a civic landmark amidst the scattered farmsteads. Resource extraction is evident through several Gravel Pit locations, while a prominent Pipeline cuts a straight path across the hydrography, illustrating the integration of modern infrastructure into the agricultural and wooded terrain of Benton, Morrison, and Mille Lacs counties.
