About this map

The glacial lakes and rural townships of Kandiyohi County define this landscape, where a series of significant water bodies are connected by natural and man-made water controls. Lake Wakanda and Little Kandiyohi Lake dominate the central portion of the sheet, while the larger Big Kandiyohi Lake stretches across the southern section. Civil engineering is evident at the Little Kandiyohi Lake Dam and the Kandiyohi Lake Inlet Dam, which manage the flow toward the South Fork Crow River.

For genealogists and local historians, the map serves as a detailed record of established community landmarks throughout the countryside. Numerous burial sites are documented, including the centrally located Tripolis Cemetery and Oak Park Cemetery. The distribution of these sites, alongside names like Old Baptist Cemetery and Bethesda Cemetery, provides evidence of the varied denominational roots of the families who settled this lake-strewn region.
