2019 Map of Tintah

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Tintah and Nashua defines this portion of the Red River Valley at the intersection of Wilkin, Traverse, Otter Tail, and Grant Counties. This modern survey illustrates the expansive grid system of townships and ranges, where the drainage of the Rabbit River and S Fork Rabbit River meanders across nearly level terrain. Historically significant for local families, the map identifies Saint Galls Cem south of the Tintah settlement and Riverside Cem located further north along the riverbanks. The influence of transport and aviation is visible through the diagonal rail corridor and the presence of Wetenkamp Airport. While much of the area is dedicated to large-scale farming, the network of township roads like TWP RD 120 and TWP RD 158 provides a detailed look at the rural connectivity that has sustained these small Minnesota communities for generations.
