The Chicago and North Western railroad forms a north-south spine through this prairie landscape, anchoring the settlements of Blue Earth, Marna, and Elmore in the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Blue Earth River and its various tributaries, including the Middle Branch Blue Earth River and West Branch Middle Blue Earth River. Human efforts to manage the wet prairie are evident in the extensive network of drainage features like County Ditch No 80 and Judicial Ditch No 26.
