1996 Map of Wirt

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Wirt stands as the primary settlement on this northern landscape, situated just south of the winding Big Fork River. This area of Itasca County is defined by a dense mosaic of lakes and complex water management systems, where the Chippewa National Forest and Bowstring State Forest meet the boundaries of the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. The map reveals a land heavily shaped by forestry and conservation, featuring numerous managed water bodies like the Holland Lake Impoundment and Fletcher Creek Impoundment. Genealogists and local historians can locate both the Wirt Cemetery near the river and the Sand Lake Cemetery further south, providing specific points of interest for family research in this township. The presence of a Gravel Pit and various ranger districts highlights the dual economy of resource extraction and federal land management that characterized the region in the late twentieth century.
