1973 Map of Grover

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and extensive wetlands define the landscape between Kampeska and Brantford in this early 1970s survey. The map records a transition in regional transportation, showing the tracks of the Chicago and North Western and Burlington Northern railroads intersecting the rural grid. Much of the terrain is dedicated to conservation and recreation, including the Goose Lake State Public Shooting Area and the National Waterfowl Production Area, reflecting the importance of this flyway for migratory birds.
