2013 Map of Spicer

About this map

Green Lake and its surrounding wetlands define this landscape in the heart of Minnesota lake country. The town of Spicer serves as a central hub, situated where MN-23 skirts the southern shore of the lake. This area is characterized by an intricate network of water bodies, including Nest Lake, George Lake, and Henderson Lake, interspersed with smaller basins like Elkhorn Lake and Alvig Slough. To the south, the settlement of Kandiyohi anchors the agricultural and transportation corridor along Us-12. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial sites, such as the Spicer Family Cem, Green Lake Lutheran Cem, and Ebenezer Cem, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing early settlement patterns. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the established recreational infrastructure, including Decision Hills Camp and Green Lake Camp.
