The Big Stone Lake shoreline marks the northeastern boundary of this landscape, where the waters divide Big Stone and Roberts counties. This area is defined by the convergence of the Whetstone River system, featuring the N Fork and S Fork Whetstone River as they move toward the state line. The map captures the agricultural grid of Grant County as it transitions into the lake environment, highlighted by localized features like Goose Island and Manhattan Island. Local land use is reflected in specific road names such as Frevert Farm Rd and Eagleview Lake Rd, which provide access to the lake's edge. The documentation of Section, Township, and Range lines, such as t121n r47w, offers a precise framework for researchers tracing specific parcels of land within this riverine and lacustrine geography.
