About this map

The settlement of Lonsdale forms the primary hub of this Rice County landscape, characterized by its residential street grid including Railway St SW and Main St S. To the west, the smaller communities of Wheatland and the cluster at Trondjem to the east reveal the dispersed nature of local agricultural and cemetery sites such as Calvary Hill Cemetery and Saint Johns Cemetery. The geography is defined by numerous water bodies, ranging from the large Mazaska Lake and Shields Lake in the south to the cluster of Phelps Lake, Duban Lake, and Metogga Lake in the northwest.

A notable landmark of local water management is the Doctor John Komarek Dam, situated central to the quadrangle. The map documents an extensive road network of trails and avenues, including Union Lake Trl and Jacobson Trl, which connect these rural homesteads and natural resources. This survey provides a clear view of the area's development before more recent suburban expansion, preserving the locations of family-named roads and historic cemetery placements.
