2019 Map of Lone Tree Lake

About this map

The Minnesota River and its confluence with the Yellow Medicine River define the northern landscape of this agricultural region. The terrain is marked by a network of drainage features including Hawk Cr, Wood Lake Cr, and Boiling Spring Cr, which flow toward the river valley. The township organization is clear through the rectilinear road system, with family and community history preserved at Rock Valley Cem and Hillside Cem. In the southern portion of the sheet, the settlement of Echo sits near the border of t113n r38w. Several small bodies of water, such as Lone Tree Lake, Highbank Lake, and Kvistid Lake, are scattered across the central plains, representing the glaciated prairie potholes typical of this part of Minnesota. The map also documents the boundary line between Renville Co and Yellow Medicine Co as it follows the river's winding course.
