About this map

The Burlington Northern railroad corridor anchors the western landscape of this late 1960s survey, running through the heart of Menahga and northward past Horton. The topography is defined by an intricate network of glacial water bodies and marshes, including the expansive Blueberry Lake and the winding Straight River. Near the corporate boundary of Menahga, a Campground and Spirit Lake mark the local recreational footprint of the era.

Further east, the settlement of Hubbard sits positioned near the shores of Long Lake, while the Shell River and Stocking Creek provide a natural drainage system for the region's many smaller basins like Twin Lakes and Stocking Lake. A local Fish Hatchery and several gravel pits indicate the area's specialized land use, supporting both conservation and local industry amidst the scattered agricultural field lines and jeep trails.
