About this map

Huntley and Guckeen anchor this agricultural landscape in Faribault County, where the transition from natural waterways to engineered drainage is clearly visible. The meandering course of the Blue Earth River and its tributaries, including Center Cr, South Cr, and Badger Cr, cut through the section lines of the township grid. These natural streams are supplemented by large-scale water management projects like Judicial Ditch Number Four and County Ditch Number Sixty, reflecting the area's intensive land use for farming.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Verona Cem and West Verona Cem north of the Interstate 90 corridor, which bisects the southern half of the quadrangle. The map documents the rural road network, from named thoroughfares like 170th ST to the county line at Martin Co Faribault Co. To the southeast, the outskirts of Blue Earth provide a glimpse into the regional hub's development along the river valley.
