2013 Map of Skime

About this map

Skime sits at the heart of this landscape where the Roseau River and the S Fork Roseau River move through the lowlands of Northern Minnesota. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural region defined by its waterway systems and a grid of section roads like 460th Ave and 120th St. Local history is anchored by the presence of Bethesda Cem and Reine Cem, reflecting the enduring community ties in this corner of the state. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the waters of Hayes Lake, while the southern reaches are marked by the jurisdictional meeting of Roseau, Marshall, and Beltrami counties. The transition from the developed road network to the river-fed wetlands illustrates the remote character of this borderland territory.
