2022 Map of Salol NW

About this map

The Roseau River meanders across this low-lying borderland, defining the drainage patterns of northern Minnesota near the Canadian frontier. In this 2022 survey, the landscape is a patchwork of wetlands and agricultural tracts, managed through an extensive network of artificial waterways like Judicial Ditch Number Sixtyone. The intersection of natural watercourses and human engineering is evident where the Lost River and Hay Cr traverse the township grids. Named terrain features like Popple Island rise above the surrounding flats, while local thoroughfares such as Mattson Island Rd and Co Rd 28 provide the primary access through these rural sections. The map captures the quiet, systematic organization of Roseau County, where the Public Land Survey System squares off a terrain historically shaped by glacial lake beds.
