About this map

The Long Prairie River meanders through this portion of Todd County, defining a landscape of wetlands and small agricultural settlements at the start of the 21st century. The map centers on the small communities of Round Prairie and Gutches Grove, where a geometric grid of county highways and township roads connects dispersed farmsteads. Local history and genealogy interest is anchored by the dual locations of Reynolds Cemetery, which sit near the western edge of the quadrangle.

Water management and natural hydrology are prominent throughout the area, from the larger expanses of Maple Lake and McCarrahan Lake to the smaller Keller Lake and Mud Lake. The presence of the H Groschel Pond Dam in the southern portion of the survey indicates local water control efforts amidst the prairie's natural drainage patterns. The road network, including Ginseng Rd and Elderberry Dr, reflects a rural character maintained even as regional infrastructure modernized.
