1966 Map of Halverson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Halverson Lake sits at the heart of this Polk County landscape, which is characterized by a dense concentration of glacial kettles and basins. In the mid-1960s, the townships of Godfrey, Woodside, and Garfield maintained a traditional rural infrastructure of section-line roads and widely spaced homesteads. The Sand Hill River cuts a distinct valley through the southern half of the quadrangle, providing a sharp contrast to the flatter upland plains to the north. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by features like the Cem and a Townhall located near the eastern boundary. Several smaller bodies of water, including Kittleson Lake, Lake Arthur, and Maple Lake, are surrounded by woodland patches and numerous Gravel Pits, indicating the area's geological reliance on glacial deposits. The map captures a quiet era of agricultural and recreational use before later land developments altered the northern Minnesota prairie-forest margin.
