New York Mills sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, where the local road network converges near Greenwood Cemetery. The terrain is defined by a dense concentration of glacial wetlands and water bodies, including Big Pine Lake, Haberman Lake, and Windy Lake. The settlement at Richdale marks a transition point along the Us-10 corridor, which cuts diagonally across the township. For genealogists, the map identifies several distinct burial sites including the Old Greenwood Cemetery and the Historic Pine Lake Cemetery, providing specific spatial context for early family plots in Otter Tail County. Agricultural and recreational land use is evident through landmarks like Jorgenson Dairy and the Sunshine Resort and Campground, illustrating the dual identity of this region as both a farming hub and a lakeside destination.
