1918 Map of Viking
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Minneapolis St Paul And Sault Ste Marie railroad defines the transportation corridor of this region at the end of the First World War, cutting diagonally through the settlement of Viking. This progressive military survey shows a landscape heavily modified by drainage infrastructure, including named channels like Ditch "A" and Ditch "B", which were essential for managing the low-lying terrain surrounding the Black River. Local community life is documented through numerous rural schools and a church, alongside small centers like Rosewood and Bray. Notable for its surveying detail, the map identifies specific geodetic markers such as the Viking West Elev. slender top, which served as critical points for mapping the flat agricultural lands of Marshall and Pennington counties.
