2019 Map of Flom

About this map

Frenchmans Bluff stands as a prominent topographical feature in this portion of western Minnesota, where the borders of Norman, Clay, and Becker counties meet. The landscape is defined by its agricultural character and the scattered small communities of Flom and Fossum. This rural network is anchored by several denominational burial grounds that reflect the region's cultural heritage, including the East Wild Rice Lutheran Cem and the Aspelund Norwegian Lutheran Cem. Water management is evident through features like County Ditch Number Fortysix, which navigates the low-lying areas near Coon Cr. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and township grids that organized these prairies for settlement, illustrating the enduring layout of family farms and local roads that have shaped the area since the late 19th century.
