How to Use This Cohasset, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cohasset, Minnesota. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Minnesota or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cohasset.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Cohasset anchors itself to the quiet persistence of the North Woods, where the dark, cool waters of Bass Brook carve a deliberate path through the landscape. It lies 4.6 miles west-northwest of Grand Rapids, MN (from Grand Rapids, MN: bearing 293°T), and is situated 9.2 miles west of Coleraine. The terrain around Cohasset unfolds in a series of wooded expanses and low-lying wetlands, where the air holds a permanent, crisp clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the pine needles against a pale sky. Only a mile away, the surface of Jay Gould Lake catches the shifting light of the afternoon, acting as a glass pane that reflects the slow transit of clouds above the timberline. During the long, quiet intervals of winter, the land settles into a muted palette of gray and white, while the proximity to Pokegama Lake ensures that the rhythms of the earth remain tethered to the slow, seasonal migration of water through the soil.

Economic life in Cohasset remains deeply influenced by the timber and industrial legacies that once drew settlers to this northern frontier, where the echoes of Ojibwe heritage and Scandinavian endurance still permeate the local character. The daily movement of the people here follows a pace dictated by the demands of the forest and the nearby regional hubs of the Iron Range, favoring a pragmatic, deliberate way of living. On the horizon, the faint, distant silhouette of Big Thunder Peak serves as a silent point of orientation for those who navigate the woods, while the influence of the Remer State Forest to the south maintains the wild, unmanicured integrity of the surrounding acreage. Life here is not defined by artifice, but by the grounded reality of a place that understands the weight of the seasons and the enduring necessity of the land.

About This Cohasset Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cohasset, Minnesota. Coordinates: 47.242447, -93.66423. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Cohasset includes the ZIP code (55721), telephone area code (218), county seat of Itasca County (Grand Rapids), and school district assignment (Grand Rapids Public School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
