2016 Map of Page Lake

About this map

Hancock anchors the southern edge of this West Central Minnesota landscape, situated just south of the large basin of Page Lake. This 2016 survey illustrates a region defined by its glacial heritage, where numerous water bodies like Lake Cyrus, Lake Charlotte, and Round Lake are scattered across the prairie. The presence of Lakeside Cem near the shores of Page Lake and the localized Brown's Private Airport to the northeast provide specific landmarks for family historians and local researchers. The western portion of the quadrangle is bisected by the Pomme de Terre River, while the Prairie Pothole Trail cuts through the center, marking the transition between agricultural fields and the wetlands of the Solvie Slough area. The road network, including State HWY 329 and Old HWY 9, follows the established section lines of the Public Land Survey System, reflecting the organized settlement patterns of Stevens County.
