About this map

The low-lying wetlands of western Beltrami County are defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and slow-moving water in this 2019 survey. The terrain is dominated by water bodies such as Little Buzzle Lake, Wolf Lake, and Whitefish Lake, which feed into the meandering course of Grant Creek. Small settlements are concentrated along the primary east-west transport corridor, notably the communities of Wilton, Solway, and Scribner.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds distributed across the townships, including Sacred Heart Catholic Cem near Wilton and the centrally located Lammers Cem. The map reveals a transition from the denser lakeside clusters in the north to the more structured road grid in the south, characterized by routes like Tom Jefferson Dr NW and Co Rd 22. This layout illustrates a landscape where modern rural development remains closely tied to the original water-rich topography.
