USGS Topo · Published 1985About this map
Albert Lea serves as the focal point for this Southern Minnesota landscape during the mid-1980s, situated at the intersection of a complex hydrographic and transportation network. The map reveals an extensive system of agricultural drainage, documented through numerous labels like Judicial Ditch No 7 and County Ditch No 20, which transformed the prairie wetlands into productive farmland. The drainage patterns surround natural water bodies such as Geneva Lake and Freeborn Lake, highlighting the managed nature of the regional water table.
