1997 Map of Riga

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

Riga and its surrounding prairie townships appear here in a landscape defined by traditional land use and conservation efforts in the late 20th century. The settlement pattern is rooted in a network of historic rural education, including Indiana Sch, White Rock Sch, Riga Sch, and Rose Hill Sch, which reflect the distributed population of this portion of McHenry County. In the southeast, the Denbigh Experimental Forest represents a significant managed woodland project within the northern plains, administered by the Custer National Forest. Water is a central feature of the western terrain, where Buffalo Lodge Lake and Rock Lake break the rolling topography. This landscape is further organized by the Fourteenth Standard Parallel North, providing a clear view of the cadastral framework that shaped early homesteading and modern agricultural tracts.
