About this map

Glacial lakes and small-town expansion define this landscape in Wright County. The city of Buffalo occupies the eastern edge of the sheet, centered near the sprawling Buffalo Lake, while the village of Maple Lake anchors the northwest corner. This area serves as a primary hub for local aviation at the Maple Lake Municipal Airport-Bill Mavencamp Sr Field.

Genealogists can find several historic burial sites scattered across the township, including Old Saint Timothy Cem, Saint Timothy Cem, and Saint Charles Cem. The terrain is dominated by water bodies and wetlands such as Mink Lake, Deer Lake, and the expansive Big Marsh to the south. Smaller, established settlements like Rassat and family landmarks like Olsons Point provide specific points of interest for local history researchers tracing the development of this lakeside region.
