2016 Map of Sanborn
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The Cottonwood River meanders across this prairie landscape, defining the topography near the settlement of Sanborn. This agricultural region at the border of Redwood and Cottonwood Counties is marked by a precise grid of section lines and rural roads, including Co Hwy 12 and Co Rd 15. Local history is anchored by several distinct burial sites, including the Sanborn Cemetery on the eastern edge of town and the Germantown Evangelical United Methodist Cemetery located further west along 100th St. Waterways like Highwater Creek and Dutch Charley Creek feed into the primary river valley, creating the only significant breaks in the geometric farm plots. The map traces the intersection of rail and road infrastructure that supported this small town's development as a regional transit point.
