2016 Map of Eldred
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Eldred and the surrounding agricultural lands of Polk Co are defined by a sophisticated water management network. In this corner of the Red River Valley, the landscape is etched with a precise grid of drainage projects, including County Ditch Number One Hundred Ten and County Ditch Number One Hundred Seventeen. These engineering efforts transformed the prairie into productive farmland, as evidenced by the numerous ditches like County Ditch Number One Hundred Eight and County Ditch Number One Hundred Sixteen that cross the townships. Local heritage is preserved at the Bardo Cem in the northeastern quadrant. The map detail reflects the persistence of section-line roads and the vital role of water control in sustaining the rural economy of northwestern Minnesota.
