2016 Map of Parkers Prairie

About this map

Parkers Prairie serves as the primary hub in this portion of Otter Tail County, where the street grid of W Colfax St and E Main St meets the open landscape. The region is characterized by a high density of water bodies, including the centrally located Horsehead Lake and Augusta Lake, which are linked by intricate drainage systems like County Ditch Number Nineteen. To the north, the small settlement of Almora sits near the shores of Almora Lake and Wing River Lake. This 2016 survey is particularly valuable for genealogical research, as it identifies several local burial grounds such as Saint Williams Cem, Parkers Prairie Cem, and the Gausdale Lutheran Church Cem. The agricultural and natural patterns of the area are further defined by the Wing River and numerous smaller basins like Cora Lake and Lake Adley.
