About this map

The prairie landscape of the Missouri Plateau transitions across the Walworth Co Potter Co border on this recent survey. Defined by a high concentration of ephemeral wetlands and seasonal basins, the area centers on Flight Lake and Green Lake, which serve as primary landmarks in an otherwise open, sectioned terrain. The sparse distribution of human infrastructure is restricted primarily to a grid of county roads and a few enduring community sites that suggest the area's early settlement history.

Remote burial grounds like Prairie Grove Cem and Pembroke Cem stand as the principal evidence of the region's rural heritage. These sites are connected by a network of local routes including Co Rd 155 and Co Rd 819, which delineate the expansive township blocks of T120N and T121N. The map illustrates a modern state of agricultural land use where natural drainage patterns and prairie potholes remain the dominant geographical features.
