2019 Map of Thief Lake

About this map

Thief Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, surrounded by the preserved wetlands of the State Wildlife area. Situated along the boundary of Roseau and Marshall counties, this territory is defined by its vast wetland complexes and a grid-like network of rural roads. The northern section of the map reveals the small, scattered footprints of early settlement and community life, represented by several secluded burial grounds and parish markers. Cultural landmarks like Klondike Church Cem, Gust National Cem, and Saint Joseph Cem are primary indicators of the area's social history, positioned along local arteries such as Co Rd 8 and 310th Ave. The terrain is characterized by intricate hydrography, with drainage patterns and marshes typical of the Agassiz lake plain, accessed via secondary routes like Refuge Rd and Co Line Rd Ne.
