2022 Map of Parkers Prairie NW

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

The glacial landscape of northwest Parkers Prairie is defined by a dense concentration of kettle lakes and wetlands, typical of the Otter Tail County lake country. This 2022 survey documents a rural environment where land use is dictated by these water bodies, including the substantial Nelson Lake, Fish Lake, and Lake Sixteen. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Folden Cem and the Zion North Effington Cem provides specific points of interest for family research in this township-and-range grid. The road network, including the diagonal Snow Lake Rd and Norwegian Rd, suggests historical routes that preceded the modern section-line roads like Co Hwy 65. Small, scattered water bodies such as Perch Lake and Mud Lake further illustrate the fragmented terrain that has historically shaped farming and development patterns in this portion of central Minnesota.
