2010 Map of Alden

About this map

Alden anchors this section of southern Minnesota, where the township structure meets a landscape defined by glacial lakes and prairie streams. The settlement serves as a local hub, home to the Alden Post Office and Alden Cemetery, while the surrounding agricultural lands are dotted with long-established sites like the Buckeye School and Carlston Cemetery. To the north, Freeborn Lake creates a significant shoreline with distinct landforms such as Arrowhead Point and Chicks Point. The hydrology of the region is further shaped by the winding Cobb River and Foster Creek, alongside managed water systems like County Ditch Number Fiftyfour. This survey illustrates the modern road network, including W Main St and the interstate corridor, while preserving the location of local recreation at the Oakview Golf Course.
