1970 Map of Bingham Lake

About this map

Bingham Lake and the nearby unincorporated community of Delft are central to this 1970 landscape in Cottonwood County. The geography is defined by a dense concentration of glacial prairie potholes and larger water bodies like Eagle Lake, Maiden Lake, and Clear Lake, which support the regional conservation efforts visible at the Little Swan Lake State Wildlife Management Area. The Chicago and North Western railroad provides the primary industrial artery, cutting diagonally through the terrain to connect these agricultural hubs. In the southwest, the edge of Windom appears alongside the Windom Municipal Airport. Local genealogy is well-documented through several burial sites, including Delft Cem, Voth Cem, and Resthaven Memory Gardens, while the Watonwan River meanders across the northern sections, tracing the natural drainage of this productive lake-dotted plains region.
