About this map

Donnelly sits at the heart of this Stevens County survey, which is characterized by a dense network of glacial wetlands and waterfowl habitats. The landscape is dotted with protected lands such as the Thedin State Wildlife Management Area and the Kline State Wildlife Management Area, alongside numerous sections of the National Waterfowl Production Area. These conservation sites mingle with a structured grid of agricultural fields, intersected by the Burlington Northern railroad and drainage features like Twelvemile Creek.

For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several distinct community landmarks. Kongsvinger Ch stands in the northeast, while the Vinger Cem and St Theresa Cem are located near the town center of Donnelly. Significant water bodies including Barrett Lake, Lundberg Lake, and the marshy Harstad Slough illustrate the natural hydrology of the area, providing a detailed look at the township before contemporary land-use changes altered these prairie wetlands.
