2014 Map of Gobles East

About this map

The settlement of Gobles and the surrounding township of Almena are documented in this contemporary survey, revealing a landscape defined by an intricate network of glacial kettle lakes and wetland drainages. The northern half of the quadrangle is punctuated by numerous water bodies including Muskrat Lake, Turkey Lake, and Tamarack Lake, many of which are linked by small creeks and county roads. The settlement patterns reflect a history of small agricultural hubs such as Kendall and Mentha, once critical points for local trade and transportation.
