1967 Map of Mount Tom

About this map

Sibley State Park and its prominent landmark, Mount Tom, dominate this portion of Kandiyohi County. The landscape is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands, including Norway Lake, Andrew Lake, and Lake Florida. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the late 1960s, documenting local landmarks like the Swedish Ch and Lake Florida Ch, along with the Colfax Cem and Burbank Cem which serve the surrounding townships. Large sections of the terrain are dedicated to conservation, notably the National Wildlife Management Area, while numerous Gravel Pits indicate local industry. The map meticulously records fence and field lines, offering genealogists and land historians a clear view of mid-century property divisions and agricultural use across Colfax and Lake Andrew townships.
