Editing Kanabec County, Minnesota (section)

==Geography==

The [[Snake River (St. Croix River)|Snake River]] flows south-southeasterly through the central part of the county, fed by [[Groundhouse River]] (flowing northeasterly from the county's SW corner) and Red Creek and Mud Creek. The Snake continues easterly into Pine County. The county terrain consists of partly-wooded rolling hills, etched by drainages. It is largely devoted to agriculture.<ref name="KCM">[https://www.google.com/maps/place/Kanabec+County,+MN/@45.745944,-93.5605564,11.75z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x52b3cdf8a56ed3e3:0x10d2ebe8b70f25a0!8m2!3d45.9329034!4d-93.2883531 ''Kanabec County MN''  Google Maps (accessed March 13, 2019)]</ref> The terrain slopes to the south and east, with its highest point near the NW corner, at {{convert|1,309|ft|m|abbr=on}} ASL.<ref>{{Cite web |title="Find an Altitude/Kanabec County MN"  Google Maps (accessed March 13, 2019) |url=https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-altitude.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190521043409/https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-altitude.htm |archive-date=May 21, 2019 |access-date=March 13, 2019}}</ref> The county has a total area of {{convert|534|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|522|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|12|sqmi}} (2.3%) is water.<ref>{{Cite web |date=August 22, 2012 |title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files |url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_27.txt |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130921060200/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_27.txt |archive-date=September 21, 2013 |access-date=October 18, 2014 |publisher=United States Census Bureau}}</ref>
