1973 Map of Lake Francis

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The glacial prairie landscape of Deuel County, South Dakota, is defined by an extensive network of wetlands and lakes, many of which were managed as public hunting and waterfowl production grounds by the early 1970s. The small settlement of Moritz sits near the center of the sheet, adjacent to an Old Railroad Grade that speaks to the former transportation corridor of the region. This area is characterized by its high concentration of protected habitats, including the Lake Francis State Public Shooting Area, Mud Lake State Public Shooting Area, and multiple National Waterfowl Production Area parcels. In addition to the large bodies of water like Lake Alice and Rush Lake, the map traces the winding course of Monighan Creek and the West Branch Lac qui Parle River as they move through the townships of Glenwood and Herrick.
