2010 Map of Forest City

About this map

Forest City serves as the focal point of this Meeker County survey, situated where Csah 2 meets the winding path of the North Fork Crow River. The landscape is a classic example of Minnesota's glaciated terrain, defined by a network of drainage systems like County Ditch Number Forty-two and several large water bodies including Richardson Lake and Dunns Lake. For those researching local families, the map identifies several burial grounds scattered across the rural township, such as Saint Gertrude Cemetery near the river bend and Ostmark Cemetery further east. The layout of the road network, including Csah 11 and Csah 14, reflects the persistent grid of agricultural property lines that have shaped this region for over a century. This 2010 edition from the U.S. Geological Survey provides a clear view of the hydrological and transportation infrastructure of the time.
