2022 Map of Wayland

About this map

Wayland serves as the primary focal point in this sparsely settled region of northern Minnesota, situated near the headwaters of the E Fork Rapid River. The landscape is defined by vast wetland systems and dense forest, characteristic of the northern wilderness within the t158n r29w and t157n r29w townships. Human presence is limited to a small network of roads, including Indian Pines Rd and Pines Rd, which navigate the low-lying terrain. This map provides a clear view of the complex hydrography and public land survey divisions that organize this remote part of the state, where the natural drainage of the E Fork Rapid River dictates the few routes available for travel through the marshes.
