2019 Map of Swan River

About this map

Swan River and the small settlement of Warba define the settled landscape of this northern Minnesota region. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of wetlands and small water bodies, including Bog Lake, Culp Lake, and Bullhead Lake. This 2019 survey illustrates the low-lying geography where Bruce Cr and the W Br Floodwood River meander through the townships. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of Sago Cem near the banks of the river provides a specific point of interest for family research. The map also delineates the boundary between Itasca Co and Aitkin Co, showing how contemporary county lines intersect with historical township divisions such as t54n r23w and t53n r23w.
