About this map

The Zumbro River snakes through the heart of this landscape, its path defined by a series of sloughs including Tushaus Slough and Fry Slough. The river’s complex hydrology is further marked by Albertson Slough and Pine Slough, reflecting a lowland drainage pattern that borders elevations like Greenfield Hill and Wabasha Hill. Transportation and small-scale settlement center around the Soo Line rail corridor, which connects Midland Junction and Kellogg on the eastern edge of the survey.

Local history and genealogy are anchored in several small rural nodes. To the southwest, the settlement of Conception is marked by the Conception Ch and Conception Cem. Other burial sites like Saint Agnes Cem near Kellogg and Greenfield Cem provide clear landmarks for family research. Numerous coulees, such as Marx Coulee and Ryan Coulee, carve into the western uplands, feeding small tributaries like Trout Brook and Gorman Cr as they flow toward the main river valley.
