About this map

Underwood serves as the central hub of this Otter Tail County landscape, where the prairie meets an intricate network of glacial lakes and rivers. The settlement's cultural history is marked by several dedicated burial grounds, including the Sunset Memorial Unitarian Cem and the Norwegian Methodist Episcopal Church Cem, reflecting the area's diverse denominational roots. The terrain is dominated by significant water bodies such as North Turtle Lake and South Turtle Lake, which are part of a complex hydrologic system that includes the Otter Tail River to the north and the Pomme de Terre River to the south.

Local landmarks such as Tingvold Cem and Rindal Cem anchor the surrounding rural townships, while numerous smaller lakes like Anna Lake and East Lost Lake illustrate the pothole-dotted geography characteristic of the region. The road network, including Co Hwy 1 and Co Hwy 18, connects these scattered homesteads and water features, tracing the paths established by early settlers through this lake-rich environment.
