About this map

Pennock serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, where the local economy and social life are anchored by the Pennock Post Office and a network of county roads. The region is characterized by numerous glacial lakes and drainage systems, most notably the meandering Shakopee Creek and Mud Creek. To the east, larger water bodies like Mamre Lake, West Solomon Lake, and Saint Johns Lake define the terrain, reflecting the area's characteristic post-glacial topography.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of religious and burial sites across the township, including the Mamrelund Lutheran Cemetery, Salem Cemetery, and Saint John's Cemetery. These sites, along with the Swan Lake Watershed Structure Dam on Swan Lake, illustrate the long-term management of the land and the established community roots in this part of Kandiyohi County.
