2016 Map of Lake Benton
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The town of Lake Benton sits at the southwestern shore of its namesake lake, framed by the prominent geological rise of the Coteau des Prairies. This high plateau landscape is carved by numerous watercourses including Norwegian Cr and Medary Cr, alongside managed drainage like County Ditch Number Twenty. The map reveals a high concentration of sites for genealogical research, such as the Danish Evangelical Cem and the Briffett Family Cem. These sites, along with Memorial Cem and Immanuel Cem, indicate the heritage of early settlers in this portion of Lincoln County. The landscape is defined by a rigorous section-line road grid, featuring routes like Norwegian Creek Rd and Co Rd 12, which connect the scattered agricultural operations across the prairie highlands.
