2013 Map of Thief Lake

About this map

Thief Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape on the border of Roseau and Marshall counties. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural northern Minnesota expanse defined by a strict grid of section roads and low-lying wetlands. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, identifying three distinct burial sites: Klondike Cem in the northwest, Gust National Cem near the center, and Saint Joseph Cem further east. Apart from the Deer Ridge Dairy, the area remains sparsely settled, with the southern terrain transitioning into the managed lands accessed by Refuge Rd. The network of local routes like Co Hwy-6 and 150th St provides the primary structure for this quiet agricultural and conservation-focused region.
