1966 Map of Osakis
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
The town of Osakis anchors this mid-1960s landscape, situated along the southern shore of Lake Osakis. The settlement's layout is defined by the Great Northern railroad line and a concentration of local institutions, including St Agnes Sch, Calvary Cem, and Evergreen Cem. The surrounding terrain transitions into a mosaic of wetlands and prairie lakes, including Smith Lake and Clifford Lake. The presence of several dedicated conservation zones, such as the Osakis State Wildlife Management Area and the Herberger Lake State Wildlife Management Area, indicates a landscape preserved for natural habitat even as industrial features like a Pipeline and multiple gravel pits begin to mark the outskirts. Genealogists may find the isolated English Grove Cem near English Grove Lake a significant point of interest for family research in rural Douglas County.
