2016 Map of Rose Creek

About this map

Rose Creek sits at the northern edge of this Mower County landscape, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural sections in the years following the millennium. The town is flanked by historic burial grounds including Saint Peter Cem and Prairie View Cem, while the hamlet of Johnsburg anchors the southern reaches near the state line. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern where Rose Cr and Otter Cr feed the larger basin, and the Little Cedar River winds through the eastern townships. A rigid grid of rural routes, such as 640th Ave and 110 St, partitions the land into the traditional Public Land Survey System squares of t102n r17w and t101n r16w, reflecting the long-standing organizational structure of Minnesota's prairie borderlands.
