The Buffalo River winds through the southern portion of this Clay County landscape, passing just south of the town of Hawley. This area exhibits the characteristic glacial topography of western Minnesota, defined by numerous scattered wetlands and named water bodies such as Tatley Lake, Solwald Lake, and Anderson Lake. The settlement of Hawley is the primary hub, showing a detailed street grid including Main St and Junction Ave N, while the smaller village of Hitterdal sits in the northeast corner. Local history is anchored by the West Salem Cem near Hitterdal and the Lysne Cem further west. Modern transportation and infrastructure are represented by the Hawley Municipal Airport and a dense network of township roads like 90th Ave N, reflecting the region's enduring agricultural layout.
