2012 Map of Medary

About this map

Lake Campbell and its surrounding glacial landscape define this section of Brookings County, where the Lake Campbell Resort serves as a focal point for local recreation. The waters of the lake drain through the Lake Campbell Outlet into the meandering Big Sioux River, which carves a winding path across the eastern prairie. For genealogists and local historians, the Lake Campbell Cem provides a significant point of reference near the northwestern shoreline. The settlement of Medary and the nearby Medary Cr reflect the area's early territorial importance. The landscape is structured by a rigorous section-line grid, featuring local routes such as Amen Cor and Bortnem Beach Rd, while the eastern edge of the map is dominated by a major north-south transportation corridor.
