About this map

Glacial depressions and watercourses define this rural landscape along the boundary of Stevens and Pope counties. The Pomme de Terre River and its associated chain, including N Pomme de Terre Lake and the larger Pomme de Terre Lakes, dominate the western half of the territory, while the Chippewa River meanders through the eastern section. This hydrographic network is interspersed with numerous smaller basins such as Swan Lake, Bjork Lake, and Scandia Lake, reflecting the region's post-glacial topography.

Legacy landmarks are primarily found in the form of rural burial grounds, which serve as primary points of interest for genealogical research. These sites, including Aeneas Lutheran Cem, Emmanuel Lutheran Cem, Scandia Cem, and Kirkegaarden Cem, are positioned along the county roads and townships that grid the farmland. The map provides a clear look at the early 21st-century road network, including Co HWY-1 and TWP HWY T-81, which connect these dispersed historical sites.
