2012 Map of Hartford North

About this map

Skunk Cr and its tributaries define the drainage patterns of this rural landscape north of Hartford at the start of the 2010s. The map illustrates a rigid sectional grid of gravel roads and section lines, including 464th Ave and 254th St, which partition the agricultural terrain. The hydrology is dominated by the meandering W Br Skunk Cr and the presence of Scotts Slough in the southwest, indicating the low-lying, water-rich nature of this part of Minnehaha County. Near the southern boundary, the transition from open farmland to a more organized residential street plan is evident with names like Par Tee Dr and N Main Ave, marking the northward expansion of the local community into the surrounding township.
