About this map

Kettle River drainage dominates this Pine County landscape, winding south from the city of Sandstone and creating a complex network of wetlands and tributaries. The water system includes the Kettle River Reservoir and Big Spring Falls, feeding into a terrain marked by numerous creeks such as Bear Cr, Fox Cr, and Deer Cr. Near the northern boundary, Spring Park Cem and the settlement of Maple Island provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists.

The presence of historical transport routes like Old Military Rd S and Old Government Rd suggests the enduring importance of these corridors through the lowlands and forests. The mapping of Grindstone River in the southwestern corner, along with smaller streams like Wilburn Cr, shows a highly saturated geography defined by its hydrology and the local section roads that navigate around these natural barriers.
