About this map

The Long Prairie River meanders across this Central Minnesota landscape, defining the boundary between Cass and Morrison counties. The region is characterized by an extensive network of glacial lakes and wetlands, including Shamineau Lake, Lake Placid, and the connected North Twin Lake and South Twin Lake. Historical transport patterns are visible through local road names like Ox Trl SW and Red River Trl SW, which hint at the earlier pioneer trails that preceded the modern grid. To the north, Sevenmile Cr drains toward the river through a mosaic of marshland and low ridges. The southern portion of the map is particularly dense with water bodies such as Stanchfield Lake and Perch Lake, surrounded by residential corridors like Cantleberry Rd and E Shamineau Dr, reflecting the area's development as a lakeside retreat.
