2022 Map of Minneota NW

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Yellow Medicine County is defined by a dense grid of rural roads and the intermittent presence of prairie wetlands. Israels Cem and Swede Home Cem stand as enduring markers of the region's Scandinavian and early pioneer settlement history, situated amidst the township lines of T115N R42W and T114N R42W. The terrain is relatively flat, drained by the meandering Spring Cr, which flows eastward toward the county boundary. Burton Lake provides a rare open water feature in the southwest, surrounded by numerous smaller depressions and seasonal marshes that characterize this part of the Minnesota prairie. The map provides a precise view of the section lines and local infrastructure, including Co RD 32 and Co HWY 3, which facilitate the movement of goods across the Yellow Medicine County and Lyon County line.
