2016 Map of Little Falls West

About this map

The Mississippi River and its confluence with the Swan River anchor the landscape of this Morrison County region, showing the western outskirts of Little Falls and the village of Sobieski. The map reveals a dense concentration of cultural and genealogical sites, including several well-preserved parish and family grounds such as Our Lady of Lourdes Cem and the Kay Burial Ground. The terrain is characterized by a high water table and numerous glacial features, from the smaller Twin Lakes and Star Lake to the more expansive Zebulon Pike Lake. The presence of the Saint Stanislaus Church Cem suggests the deep roots of the local community, while the surrounding marshlands and creeks like Pike Cr and Hay Cr highlight the drainage patterns that have historically shaped local agriculture and development in central Minnesota.
