1973 Map of Star Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Glacial geology defines this portion of Otter Tail County, where a dense network of kettle lakes and wetlands dominates the landscape in the early 1970s. The primary focal point is the expansive Star Lake, bordered by several National Waterfowl Production Area parcels, reflecting the region's importance for conservation and habitat. To the north, large water bodies like Big Mc Donald Lake and West Mc Donald Lake are contrasted by smaller, family-named features such as Ottos Lake, Berend Lake, and McCollum Lake. Local history and genealogy are anchored by rural landmarks including the Townhall and several small burial grounds like St Johns Cem and Weimann Community Cem. A patchwork of field lines and gravel extraction sites, including various Gravel Pits, suggests a landscape primarily dedicated to agriculture and local resource management amidst the labyrinth of waterways.
