About this map

W Elbow Lake Lutheran Cem serves as a significant genealogical anchor in this rural portion of Grant County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Mustinka River. The river drains southward through a series of prairie potholes and larger water bodies, including Trisko Lake and Hodgson Lake. The terrain is patterned by a strict grid of township and county roads, such as Co HWY-11 and TWP HWY 81, which delineate the agricultural tracts between the wetlands.

Several distinct water features, like the Bailey Slough and Mustinka Flowage, highlight the hydrologic character of the region. The map reveals the relationship between the natural drainage of the Moses Lake and Prescott Lake areas and the established rural infrastructure. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the land before significant modern development, preserving the locations of namesake lakes like Huset Lake and the various township lines that have shaped local property boundaries for generations.
