2019 Map of Wawina

About this map

Wawina serves as the primary settlement hub in this northern Minnesota landscape, situated near the intersection of Co RD 429 and Co RD 425. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of the Floodwood River and the W Br Floodwood River, which snake through extensive wetland areas across several townships. This 2019 survey documents a network of local roads such as 10 Saari Rd, Hinkkanen Rd, and Short Cut Rd that connect isolated properties and family-named landmarks. The presence of the Cedar Valley Cem in the eastern portion of the map provides a vital reference point for genealogists and local historians tracking family roots in this rural area of Itasca County and St. Louis County. The map also reveals a distinctive naming convention for several local routes, including Wawina A, Wawina B, Wawina D, and Wawina E, suggesting a structured approach to rural development in the region.
