About this map

Spruce Grove Cem and Saint John's Cem anchor the rural landscape along the boundary of Becker and Otter Tail counties. This agricultural region is defined by a dense network of country roads like Co Hwy-53 and Co Hwy-8 that connect isolated farmsteads and religious sites. The Willow Creek Dairy Farm stands as a notable landmark in a landscape dominated by water and wetlands.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with the Redeye River winding through the northeast and the northern reaches of Big Pine Lake visible in the southwest. A collection of smaller water bodies, including Mud Lake, Edma Lake, and Collett Lake, are interspersed among the surveyed sections, reflecting the glaciated terrain of central Minnesota. Local family or community history can be traced through sites like Bethlehem Cem and the named crossroads that define this quiet dairy country.
