2016 Map of Thief Lake SE

About this map

Thief Lake and its surrounding wetlands define this northern Minnesota landscape along the border of Roseau and Marshall counties. This 2016 survey shows a largely undeveloped region characterized by an extensive grid of section lines and gravel access roads like Ridge Rd and Refuge Rd. These routes provide access to the conservation areas and small rural landmarks that dot the terrain. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies specific points of local heritage, including Palmville Cem in the northeast near Reynolds Rd and Moose River Cem situated further south. The drainage patterns of the area are primarily represented by the winding Mickinock Cr, which snakes through the flat marshland, illustrating the complex hydrology of this part of the state before the landscape transitions toward more settled agricultural land.
