About this map

The Redeye River meanders across this rural landscape where the borders of Becker, Otter Tail, and Wadena counties meet. In the early 21st century, this area remains a mosaic of wetlands and agricultural tracts, defined by water bodies like Mud Lake and the Kettle River. The land is organized by a strict grid of section roads, including Kangas Rd and Laitinen Rd, which reflect the region's Scandinavian heritage and homesteading history.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds preserved among the fields, including Bethania Lutheran Cem near the southern edge and Red Eye Cem to the east. The presence of Grace Cem along the river further illustrates the dispersed nature of local community life. The drainage of the land is carefully managed through features like County Ditch Number Twentyseven, which feeds into Cat Cr, showing the ongoing balance between the natural watershed and human cultivation.
