1969 Map of Lake Poinsett

About this map

Lake Poinsett and Dry Lake dominate this landscape on the border of Hamlin and Brookings Counties during the late 1960s. The map illustrates a region transitioning between agricultural use and lakeside recreation, connected by the Stone Bridge crossing the narrow channel between the two large water bodies. The shoreline is dotted with developed access points such as Arlington Beach, Saaraners Beach Access Area, and South Poinsett Access Area, indicating the area's importance for local outdoor activities.
