2019 Map of Dassel

About this map

Dassel sits as the central hub in this Meeker County landscape, defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and small rural settlements. To the south, the community of Jennie is positioned near the shores of Lake Jennie, where the Lake Jennie Cem serves as a significant marker for local genealogical research. The terrain is characterized by numerous water bodies including Lake Washington, Spring Lake, and Collinwood Lake, all connected by seasonal drainages like Washington Cr and Silver Cr. These lakes are interspersed with several historic burial grounds, such as Steelsville Cem and Pioneer County Cem, which suggest long-standing rural community ties. The road network, including Co RD 29 and Atlantic Ave, illustrates the transition from organized town grids to the more fluid sections of the surrounding lake country.
