1982 Map of Tampico

About this map

The Rock River winds through the northern portion of this landscape, flanked by the lowlands of Ramsey Slough and Spring Slough. In the south, the village of Tampico serves as a focal point, situated at the junction of the Burlington Northern railroad and a grid of rural routes like Yorktown Road. The area's agricultural character is defined by an extensive drainage system, including the prominent Hennepin Canal State Park Feeder and various numbered waterways like County Ditch No 1. Local heritage is preserved in landmarks such as St Marys Cem, Maple Hill Cem, and the small settlement of Olson. Smaller aviation and educational sites, including the Rutherford Landing Strip and Maple Hill Sch, reflect the distributed rural community life during the early 1980s.
