2016 Map of Moland

About this map

Moland stands at the geographical nexus of four southern Minnesota counties, marking the corner where Rice, Goodhue, Steele, and Dodge meet. This agricultural landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Middle Fork Zumbro River and the winding course of Rush Cr, which together shape the local drainage patterns. The map detail highlights the importance of faith and lineage in this rural community, preserving the locations of the Moland Cem and Merton Cem. A dense network of township roads, including Goodhue Ave and Lamb Ave, connects the farmsteads across sections T109N and T108N. The layout of these routes, such as Co Hwy 12 and Co Hwy 19, follows the traditional grid of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how land division influenced the modern transportation infrastructure in this part of the state.
