About this map

The Lostwood National Wildlife Refuge dominates this section of Burke County, where a dense concentration of prairie potholes and sloughs creates a complex, aquatic landscape. This 1974 survey documents a terrain defined by glacial activity, featuring numerous named water bodies like Iverson Lake, Ward Lake, and the expansive Thompson Lake. The presence of the Lostwood Wilderness area highlights the preservation of this unique ecosystem, characterized by natural depressions such as Swensens Slough and Melbys Slough.
