About this map

Little Fork River meanders through this portion of Koochiching County, joined by several tributaries including Willow River, Bois Forte Creek, and the Sturgeon River. The landscape is defined by the rural settlements of Silverdale and Greaney, which serve as the primary hubs for this sparsely populated northern Minnesota region. The grid of roads, such as County Hwy-74 and County Hwy-55, provides access to the timber and wetland areas that dominate the terrain.

Local history and genealogy are anchored at the Greaney Cemetery located near the eastern boundary. This 2010 survey illustrates a quiet, enduring road network with family-named routes like Sethers Rd, Halvorson Rd, and Ableman Rd, which hint at the homesteading and agricultural lineages of the area. The map documents the persistent character of these small communities and their relationship with the winding river systems that shape the local geography.
