2013 Map of Dead Coon Lake

About this map

Tyler sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, positioned along the path of Us-14 and MN-23. This area of Southwest Minnesota is defined by the Coteau des Prairies, a high glacial plateau that shapes the local hydrology and agricultural patterns. Significant water bodies include Dead Coon Lake and Wood Lake, while a network of engineered waterways like County Ditch Number Fourteen and Judicial Ditch Number Thirtyone drain the surrounding fields toward the Redwood River. Local genealogy and land history are anchored by several established burial grounds, including Hope Cem near the town center, Saint Dionysius Cem to the north, and both Wood Lake Cem and Mission Cem further east. The map captures a grid of rural roads and section lines where Lincoln County meets Lyon County.
