About this map

Pomme de Terre River and its associated chain of lakes define the hydrography of this section of Minnesota, where the waterway flows south into the expansive Pomme de Terre Lake. This 2010 survey illustrates a landscape primarily shaped by glacial depressions, featuring numerous named bodies of water including Tenmile Lake, Fourmile Lake, and Skunk Lake. The presence of the Ten Mile Lake Dam indicates localized water level management in a region where drainage patterns are often subtle.

Local history and genealogy interests are well-represented by several rural burial grounds scattered across the township, such as Bethlehem Cemetery, Hjerdal Cemetery, and Christ Cemetery. While the area remains largely agricultural with a grid of township and county highways, the southern portion near the lake includes the Tipsinah Mound Golf Course, showing the transition toward recreational land use in the early 21st century.
