About this map

Glacial geology and agricultural development meet in this late 1960s survey of Lincoln County, Minnesota. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of two major river systems: the Lac qui Parle River flowing through the northern townships and the Yellow Medicine River, including its North Branch, winding through the south. This era shows a significant emphasis on conservation and land management, with numerous designated zones such as the Dorer State Wildlife Management Area and the Johnson State Wildlife Management Area protecting the prairie wetlands.
