2017 Map of Still Lake SE

About this map

Coteau des Prairies defines the elevated landscape of this Codington County region, where the high prairie begins its gradual descent toward the Minnesota River valley. This 2017 survey reveals a highly organized agricultural grid, with north-south avenues like 457th Ave and east-west streets like 160th St carving the land into precise sections. Genealogists will find several notable local burial grounds preserved in this landscape, including the Klix Cem in the north and the Saint Luke's Lutheran Cem further south. The drainage patterns of Mahoney Cr and Mud Cr cut across the geometric township lines, providing natural variation to the otherwise structured layout of t119n r52w and surrounding townships. These small waterways were historically vital for the early agrarian settlements that established the Saint John's Evangelical Lutheran Cem and nearby community markers.
