2010 Map of Hawley

About this map

The Buffalo River winds through the southern landscape of this Clay County region, framing the city of Hawley. This area reflects a well-established agricultural and transportation grid, defined by routes like County HWY-32 and 250th ST N. To the north, the town of Hitterdal serves as another focal point, situated near several significant water bodies including Tatley Lake, Solwald Lake, and Anderson Lake. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the West Salem Cemetery near Hitterdal and the Hawley Cemetery to the south. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is evident in the presence of the Hawley Municipal Airport and active postal facilities like the Hitterdal Post Office. The drainage patterns of Hay Creek and the surrounding wetlands illustrate the prairie-pothole character of this portion of the Red River Valley upland.
