About this map

The Clam River meanders through this Polk County landscape, feeding into significant water bodies like the Clam Falls Flowage 65 and Knapp Flowage 7. This 2013 survey illustrates a region defined by its glacial heritage, most notably marked by the Ice Age National Scenic Trail as it winds northward past Margaret Lake and Crooked Lake. The terrain is punctuated by numerous kettle lakes, including Godfrey Lake, Somers Lake, and the smaller Briar Lake, which speak to the area's geological history.

A network of numbered country roads and specialized routes like Clam Falls Trl and McKenzie Trl provide access to the area's rural properties. Aviation presence is noted at the Geo Jensen Airport in the southwest, while the northern reaches show a mix of wetlands and forest along Somers Cr and Knapp Cr. The map details a transition between protected scenic corridors and local agricultural or recreational land use.
