About this map

The Lac qui Parle River and its West Branch define the agricultural landscape of western Lac qui Parle County during the late 1960s. This survey illustrates a highly organized prairie grid, where town halls and rural institutions serve as the primary landmarks between vast sections of farmland. While the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts across the northeastern corner near the Madison Municipal Airport, the interior of the quadrangle remains deeply rural, anchored by local focal points like the Garfield Ch and the Hamlin Cem. Extensive water management is evident through systems like County Ditch No 69 and County Ditch No 17, while the Hamlin State Wildlife Management Area preserves a pocket of natural wetland and marsh along the river's path.
