2013 Map of Callaway

About this map

Callaway sits at the heart of this Becker County landscape, where the Us-59 corridor provides a primary north-south artery through a terrain densely pockmarked by glacial depressions. The map records a transition from the structured street grid of the village to the irregular lake country of the surrounding prairie and woodland. Small agrarian settlements and burial grounds, such as Westbury and Saint Marys Cem, are interspersed between numerous water bodies including Tamarac Lake and Gandrud Lake. The Buffalo River flows through the northeastern corner, anchoring a drainage pattern that feeds into several large lakes like Cravath Lake and Torgerson Lake. The network of section-line roads, including Co HWY-14 and 280 St, reveals a landscape deeply organized by township-and-range surveying, yet defined by the natural contours of its many lakes and wetlands.
