2010 Map of New Miner

About this map

The New Miner settlement serves as a central point in this rural landscape, where the meandering course of the Yellow River contrasts with a series of engineered water controls. The drainage of Cranberry Creek is heavily modified by several water management structures, including Cranberry Creek 2 2WP194 Dam, Cranberry Creek 3 2WP194 Dam, and Cranberry Creek 5 2WP194 Dam, illustrating the area's specialized hydraulic history. Local family and community roots are well-documented through numerous burial grounds scattered across the terrain, notably Saint Pauls Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery, Novotny Cemetery, Searles Prairie Cemetery, and Zion Cemetery. In the southeast, the shoreline of Petenwell Lake emerges, while a regular grid of roads like County Hwy-G and 17th Ave N organizes the agricultural and forested parcels between the waterways.
