1986 Map of Lake Minnewaska

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The glacial lakes region of West Central Minnesota is prominently displayed in this 1980s landscape, centered on the expansive waters of Lake Minnewaska. The city of Glenwood serves as a primary hub on the eastern shore, while the Soo Line and Burlington Northern railroads trace the movement of grain and goods across the prairie. The map details a transition from the dense cluster of lakes near Alexandria, such as Lake Carlos and Lake Ida, to the river-fed plains of Morris in the southwest. A significant portion of the land is dedicated to conservation, shown by the numerous State Wildlife Management Areas like White Bear State Wildlife Management Area and Garfield State Wildlife Management Area. These areas, combined with named landmarks like Stony Point and Lawrence Point, reveal a region where the natural hydrology of the Pomme de Terre River heavily influences settlement patterns.
