2016 Map of Skime

About this map

Skime anchors this 2016 survey of the Minnesota landscape, where the northern wetlands and forest meet the headwaters of the S Fork Roseau River. This region is defined by its large-scale section divisions and a grid of rural roads like Co Rd 18 and Co Hwy 1 that navigate a terrain dominated by marshes. The map provides essential data for genealogists tracing families in the area, clearly marking the locations of Bethesda Cem and Reine Cem. The presence of the Winner Forest Rd in the northeastern corner suggests the importance of timber and conservation in this corner of Roseau County. This edition captures the modern infrastructure of these rural townships, documenting the exact placement of local section lines and County Roads near the intersection of Roseau, Marshall, and Beltrami counties.
