About this map

Hutchinson serves as the focal point of this McLeod County landscape, situated where the South Fork Crow River flows through the Hutchinson Dam. The town's local institutions are well-documented, including the Hutchinson Post Office and nearby Oakland Cemetery. North of the settlement, the terrain is defined by a dense concentration of glacial lakes, ranging from the expansive Lake Jennie and Lake Byron to smaller bodies like Echo Lake and Little Bear Lake.

Evidence of the region's agricultural and recreational transition is visible in the presence of the Luce Line Trl, which follows a former rail corridor past the Mud Lakebed. Small rural clusters like Lamson and Komensky anchor the northern and eastern sections of the map, while the Silver Lake Landing Field indicates local aviation infrastructure. The distribution of lakes such as Lake Hook and Tomlinson Lake illustrates the typical kettle-lake topography of the Minnesota prairie.
