1966 Map of Skull Lake

About this map

The Canada United States border defines the northern edge of this northern Minnesota landscape, where the marshy terrain of Kittson County meets the Provencher District of Manitoba. At the heart of the sheet lies the expansive St Joseph Skull Lake State Wildlife Management Area, a complex of wetlands and wooded patches surrounding Skull Lake. The low-lying topography is managed by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, including State Ditch No 84 and State Ditch No 14, which redirect water across the flat plains. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the North Branch Two Rivers meanders through the townships of Poppleton and Cannon. Evidence of local community life appears in the scattered rural landmarks, from the First Lutheran Ch and the neighboring Townhall to the McKinley Cem located near the small settlement of McKinley.
