2013 Map of Saint Leo

About this map

Saint Leo serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Yellow Medicine County, centered at the intersection of Co Hwy-3 and Co Hwy-11. The town maintains its local identity through its dedicated Po and the nearby Saint Leo Cem. This portion of western Minnesota is defined by a rigorous grid of section-line roads, such as 230th Ave and 270th St, which overlay the natural drainage of Spring Cr and Mud Cr. Further south, the rural character is evidenced by the secluded Burton Cem and the small-scale aviation of Koch's Personal Field Airport. The map also captures the triple-county boundary where Yellow Medicine, Lincoln, and Lyon counties meet, illustrating the precise surveyor's lines that partitioned the prairie into productive farmsteads.
