About this map

Big Stone Lake anchors this 1954 survey of the borderlands between South Dakota and Minnesota, revealing a rural landscape defined by a high density of country schoolhouses and small cemeteries. The lake’s shoreline is punctuated by notable landmarks like Salmonson Point, Lou Point, and Goose Island, with Hartford Beach State Park providing a public focal point for the region. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Whetstone River and its forks, as well as the path of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad crossing the drainage area of the South Fork.
