About this map

The village of Centuria anchors this Polk County landscape, situated amidst a dense network of glacial lakes and historical sites. The 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by water, from the expansive Deer Lake and Long Lake in the east to Poplar Lake and Sand Lake in the south. These water bodies, along with smaller features like Barneys Lake and Beebe Lake, suggest a geography deeply shaped by the region's post-glacial activity.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of rural burial sites, including Saint John Cem, McAskill Cem, and Fristad Cem. The settlement of Lamar sits south of the main village, while the western edge of the map begins to encompass the outskirts of St. Croix Falls. Significant recreational infrastructure is present in the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, which winds past Big Rock Cr, connecting the modern landscape to its ancient geological roots.
