About this map

Frost and Dell anchor this Faribault County landscape, which is defined by an extensive network of managed waterways and agricultural infrastructure. The movement of water across this prairie terrain is meticulously detailed through features like County Ditch Number Fiftyfive, County Ditch Number Thirtyone, and the E Br Blue Earth River. These systems reflect the region's long-standing reliance on drainage engineering to support its productive farmland.

Local history and genealogy are preserved in the positioning of rural landmarks such as Emerald Cem, South Blue Earth Lutheran Cem, and Bethany Cem. The map traces the rigid grid of county roads, such as Co Rd 112 and Co Rd 2, interspersed with historically evocative names like Pioneer Trl. The survey provides a clear view of the township and range divisions, showing the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System in Southern Minnesota.
