2016 Map of Dennison

About this map

Stanton and Dennison anchor this survey of the agrarian borderlands where Rice, Dakota, and Goodhue Counties meet. The landscape is defined by the Cannon River cutting through the northwestern corner and the winding course of Prairie Cr and Spring Cr across the central and southern plains. This area maintains a distinct rural character, with the grid-like road network connecting family homesteads and local landmarks such as the Prairie Creek Cem. The presence of the Stanton Airfield northeast of the namesake settlement highlights the importance of local aviation in this part of Minnesota. The map provides a precise look at the township boundaries and the numerous named roads, such as Sciota Trl and High Prairie Trl, that traverse the rolling terrain and connect these small agricultural communities.
