About this map

The Chippewa River winds through this Grant County landscape, connecting a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands characteristic of west-central Minnesota. The small settlement of Erdahl serves as a central point in a region defined by its water bodies, including the expansive Solberg Lake, Barrett Lake, and the smaller Sylvan Lake. The terrain is marked by family-named landmarks like Thorstad Lake and Malmgren Lake, reflecting the local heritage of the surrounding townships.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the preservation of several burial sites across the quadrangle. The map identifies Zionsborg Cemetery, Lincoln Cemetery, Old Lincoln Cemetery, and Barrett Covenant Cemetery. These sites, alongside a grid of rural routes such as County Hwy-5 and Twp Hwy 134, provide a clear picture of the community structure and land use at the end of the first decade of the 2000s.
