About this map

The Coteau des Prairies plateau dominates this Nobles County landscape, shaping the drainage of its prairie streams and agricultural grid. Water management is a defining characteristic of the terrain, as seen in the engineered paths of Judicial Ditch Number Eleven-b and County Ditch Number Five, which sit alongside the natural winding courses of E Br Kanaranzi Cr and Little Rock Cr. This survey captures the intensive rural land use of the late 2010s, where a dense network of secondary roads such as Hesselroth Ave and State Hwy 266 divides the land into its Public Land Survey System sections. The map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure supporting this agricultural region, from the interstate corridor in the south to the section-line roads like Erickson Ave and Knauf Ave that connect isolated farmsteads.
