1973 Map of Chokio

About this map

Chokio serves as the central hub of this western Minnesota landscape, situated along the Burlington Northern railroad line. The map documents a prairie environment defined by its water management and conservation areas, including the National Waterfowl Production Area and the Chokio State Wildlife Management Area. These designations, alongside features like Jipson Slough and the dry Clark Lakebed, illustrate the region's importance for migratory birds and local conservation efforts during the early 1970s.
