About this map

Lake Traverse dominates this landscape, serving as the natural boundary between Roberts County, South Dakota, and Traverse County, Minnesota. The 2013 survey of this borderland reveals a sparse rural layout where small settlements and lone landmarks define the human presence. The small community of Dakomin sits along the eastern shore, connected to the wider region by the diagonal path of Mn-27.

Further south along the shoreline, Rainbow Island provides a distinct geographical break in the lake’s expanse. Local history and genealogy are centered around the Lake View Cem, located just off the highway. This edition by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a strictly gridded interior dominated by county highways like Co Hwy-3 and Co Hwy-4, illustrating the persistent agricultural and transport patterns that have shaped this prairie region for generations.
