2019 Map of Swift

About this map

Swift sits along the northern edge of this Roseau County landscape, positioned where Kirkwood Dr cuts diagonally across the township lines. The terrain is characterized by the expansive wetlands typical of northern Minnesota, drained in the south by the E Br Warroad River. A network of section-line roads and specialized forest routes, such as Tangnes Forest Rd and Cole Forest Rd, provides access to the dense woodlots and marshes that define the local geography. Human activity is concentrated along these transit corridors, including local aviation at Erickson Airport. Further south, Sciffres Bridge spans the river branch, marking a critical crossing point within the forested interior. The map captures a contemporary look at this rural pocket, where the grid of county roads meets the more organic paths of the state forest lands.
