About this map

Watonwan River and its various tributaries define the drainage and settlement patterns along the border of Brown and Watonwan counties. The village of La Salle serves as a local hub, situated near the La Salle Lutheran Cem and the community's post office on Broadway. To the south, the railroad-aligned settlement of Grogan sits at the junction of Co Hwy-13, marking a distinct shift in the rural grid.

The northern portion of the landscape is dominated by the waters of Hanska Lake and the recreational area of the Lake Hanska County Park Campground. Notable landmarks like Fort Hill and the uniquely named One Hundred Acre Slough suggest a topography shaped by glacial history, while family-history researchers can locate specific sites like the Rosendale Cem in the southeastern corner of the quadrangle.
