2022 Map of Heinola

About this map

The settlement of Heinola anchors this portion of Otter Tail County, a landscape defined by its complex glacial hydrology and rural road network. Significant water bodies like West Leaf Lake, East Leaf Lake, and Rush Lake dominate the terrain, connected by the Leaf River and its tributaries such as Willow Cr. This map captures a mature rural community with a clear sense of its local heritage, evident in the distribution of established burial grounds including Woodland Cem, Prairie Cem, and Leaf Lake Cem. The transition from the town of Henning at the western edge toward the agricultural interior is traced by a grid of county highways and local routes like Co Hwy 54 and Leaf River Rd. The map provides a detailed record of land use and drainage patterns in a region where the water and the land are inextricably linked.
