2017 Map of Lambs Lake

About this map

The glacial prairie landscape of Nelson County is defined here by a dense network of wetlands and namesake water bodies. Lambs Lake and Stella Lake dominate the northern and central sections, while Harrison Lake and the Twin Lakes sit among the depressions further south. This terrain necessitated a rigid section-line road grid, including Co Rd 4 and 117th Ave NE, which navigate around the numerous unnamed sloughs and seasonal basins. A significant point of interest for local history is the Melrose Cem, located centrally within the township of T151N R58W. The map reflects the enduring agricultural character of the region, where the placement of small rural roads like Orwick Dr and Co Rd 35 illustrates how 21st-century infrastructure remains tied to the original late-19th-century land surveys.
