About this map

The state line between South Dakota and Minnesota bisects a landscape of prairie potholes and winding drainages in the late 1960s. This survey of Lac qui Parle County and Deuel County highlights the prominent Salt Lake, a notable hydrologic feature in a region of scattered sloughs and seasonal wetlands like Bolland Slough. The rural character is defined by its small community landmarks, including the Zoar Ch and Antelope Valley Ch, along with the Antelope Valley Cem. Conservation efforts are evident in the Dacotah State Wildlife Management Area, while the Lac qui Parle River West Branch and Lost Creek illustrate the natural drainage patterns that shaped early agricultural settlement in Antelope Valley.
