1986 Map of Lake Minnewaska

About this map

Lake Minnewaska anchors this central Minnesota landscape, a region defined by an extensive network of glacial lakes and river systems as they appeared in the mid-1980s. The city of Alexandria serves as a primary hub, surrounded by a dense cluster of water bodies including Lake Darling, Lake Ida, and Lake Carlos State Park. Transportation corridors like Interstate 94 and the Burlington Northern railroad intersect the terrain, connecting smaller agricultural centers such as Starbuck, Glenwood, and Morris. To the south, the Blue Mounds and Glacial Lake State Park highlight the distinct topography of the prairie-forest transition. For the local historian, the map details the intricate drainage patterns of the Chippewa River and the Pomme de Terre River alongside established aviation sites like Alexandria Municipal Airport.
