2013 Map of Viking

About this map

The small community of Viking sits at the intersection of Co Hwy 11 and Co Hwy 2, serving as a focal point for this rural agricultural landscape in northwestern Minnesota. The map traces the winding course of the S Br Snake River as it cuts across the northern half of the quadrangle, while the southern reaches are dominated by the Black River and the rural junction at Carpenters Corner. This survey records a transition in the local infrastructure, following the historical path of the Pembina Trl NW, which parallels newer routes like Co Hwy 142. Local landmarks, including the Viking Cem and the village Po, anchor the area's history, while the straight boundary line between Marshall Co and Pennington Co highlights the region's orderly township and county divisions.
