About this map

Mount Tom rises as a prominent high point in this landscape of glacial lakes and prairie depressions. This section of Kandiyohi County is defined by a dense network of water bodies, from the sprawling Andrew Lake and Lake Florida in the south to Games Lake and Norway Lake in the west. The drainage patterns are clearly marked by Shakopee Cr and several managed waterways such as County Ditch Number B Four.

For those researching local history or genealogy, several rural burial grounds are preserved across the townships, including Lake Andrew Cem, Lake Florida Cem, Colfax Cem, and Burbank Cem. The road network, such as Co HWY 40 and Sibley Park Rd NW, connects these points of interest, showing how the rural community remains organized around the lakes and sections established generations ago. The map provides a precise look at the contemporary interface between these natural features and local land management.
