About this map

Glacial lake basins and rolling prairie define the landscape of eastern Polk County, where the city of Fosston serves as a local hub. The area is characterized by an intricate network of water bodies, including Turtle Lake, Volden Lake, and the connected waters of First Lake, Second Lake, and Third Lake. To the southeast, the village of Lengby sits near the headwaters of the Poplar River, surrounded by several historic burial grounds including Saint Pauls Cem and Immanuel Cem. These cemeteries, often associated with early Scandinavian Lutheran congregations like Landstad Cem and Kingo Cem, reflect the late 19th-century settlement patterns of the region. The drainage provided by the Sand Hill River and its various tributaries, such as Sugar Bush Cr, underscores the hydrological importance of this upland terrain, which transitioned from natural tallgrass prairie to a productive agricultural landscape defined by the Public Land Survey System grid.
