2019 Map of Dumont

About this map

Dumont and the smaller community of Collis serve as the primary focal points in this survey of Traverse County, Minnesota. The landscape is defined by the agricultural grid of the Great Plains, where the winding path of West Branch Twelvemile Creek (also labeled as W Br Twelvemile Cr) provides the only significant break in the geometric township lines. In the southeast, Saint Patrick Cem stands as a notable landmark for those tracing local family roots. The northern portion of the quadrangle shows the engineering of the prairie through County Ditch Number Fifteen, illustrating the long-standing efforts to manage water for farming. This map reflects the enduring rural character of the region, where County Highways 4 and 6 remain the vital arteries connecting these quiet agricultural settlements.
