1970 Map of South Red Iron Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Sisseton Indian Reservation landscape is defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and sloughs as documented in 1970. Significant water bodies such as Clear Lake, North Red Iron Lake, and South Red Iron Lake dominate the central terrain, while the extensive National Wildlife Management Area underscores the region's importance for conservation. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Old Eden Cem and the Townhall near Meyer Slough provide tangible links to the civic and family foundations of the Eden and Dumarce townships. The map reveals the hydrology of the area, including numerous smaller bodies like Goodbird Lake and Turtlefoot Lake, which are interspersed with wetlands such as Pete Slough. A single primary road cuts through the lake country, connecting these remote water-bound communities during the early 1970s.
