About this map

The Kettle River carves a deep path through this portion of Pine County, defining the landscape with notable features such as Big Spring Falls, Sandstone Rapids, and the Kettle River Reservoir. The settlement of Sandstone sits at the northern edge of the map, adjacent to the Spring Park Cem and the Sandstone Federal Correctional Institution.

Transport and water management systems are evident throughout the rural terrain, from the historic alignment of Old Military Rd S to the engineered Friesland Ditch. To the south, the confluence of the Grindstone River and the Kettle River, along with the secluded Wilburn Creek, illustrates the complex drainage of this forested region. Numerous local routes like Klejeski Rd and Swede Aly provide access to the hinterlands between the river bends and Maple Island.
