2022 Map of Trisko Lake

About this map

The Mustinka River winds through the heart of this Grant County landscape, defining a glacially-carved terrain rich with prairie potholes and small lakes. This 2022 USGS survey documents the rural character of the region, where a precise grid of township roads like Co RD 42 and Co HWY 11 organizes the agricultural expanse. For local historians and genealogists, the West Elbow Lake Lutheran Cem stands as a significant landmark, situated near the river's northern reaches. The map illustrates a high density of water bodies, including Trisko Lake, Round Lake, and Hodgson Lake, which reflect the area's hydrology before and after modern drainage and land management. This survey provides an exact record of the contemporary rural infrastructure, showing the relationship between established farmsteads and the natural water features such as Bailey Slough and Prescott Lake.
