About this map

The Northern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary spine for this mid-century landscape in Morrison County, connecting the town of Randall to rural outposts like Darling Switch. The region is defined by a dense network of water bodies and marshlands, including Green Prairie Fish Lake, Ferrell Lake, and the winding course of the Little Elk River. A significant portion of the northeastern quadrant is occupied by the Camp Ripley Military Reservation, with its internal road system including Argonne Road and Champange Road.

Local history and genealogy interests are well-represented by the distribution of country schools, such as School No 67 and School No 74, and several prominent burial grounds. The presence of the Old Darling Mission Cemetery and St James Cemetery alongside Immanuel Church indicates established community centers within the Darling and Clough townships. Economic activity of the era is evidenced by numerous industrial features, including a Pumping station and various Gravel pit sites scattered across the terrain.
