1966 Map of Ranum

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Sundal, Bear Park, Strand, and Waukon townships is defined by a grid of farmsteads and field lines in the mid-1960s. This survey, conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Administration, highlights the rural character of eastern Norman and Polk counties. Small clusters of activity are centered around Ranum, Rindal, and Sundal, while the drainage of the land is managed through features like County Ditch No 42 and the natural course of Garden Slough. Cultural landmarks are prominently marked, including St Johns Ch, Sundal Ch, and Ness Ch, which served the local farming community. The map also records early industrial activity, such as a Gravel Pit used for local road infrastructure, providing a detailed view of these high-plains townships before modern consolidation.
