The Zumbro River carves a deep, winding path through the northern half of this landscape, anchoring the riverfront settlements of Millville, Jarrett, and Hammond. This 1972 survey captures the transition from the river valley to the elevated plateaus of Hyde Park and Oakwood. The geography is defined by the Minnesota Memorial Hardwood State Forest, where steep, wooded ravines contrast sharply with the expansive agricultural fields found further south in Elgin and Potsdam. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by rural landmarks such as Oakwood Ch, Bremen Ch, and the Pleasant Prairie Cem. The presence of several Gravel Pits along the river and various tributary creeks like Silver Spring Creek and Long Creek indicates the local industries and infrastructure needs of the early 1970s.
