1963 Map of Motley

About this map

The confluence of the Crow Wing River and the Long Prairie River anchors this mid-century survey of the central Minnesota lake country. The settlement of Motley serves as a local hub at the intersection of the Northern Pacific railroad and regional roadways, featuring its own Fairground and the Motley Cem. The landscape is a mosaic of water and woods, showing significant hydrological features like the expansive Mud Lake, Shamineau Lake, and the notably dry Lois Lake Bed.
