2022 Map of Ward Springs

About this map

Ward Springs and the surrounding central Minnesota lakelands are captured in this modern topographic survey, detailing a landscape defined by glacial activity and rural settlement. The map highlights the transition between Todd and Stearns Counties, featuring the clustered waters of Big Birch Lake and Little Birch Lake in the south and Big Swan Lake to the northeast. These water bodies, along with smaller features like Bunker Lake and Zager Lake, shaped the early development of communities such as Grey Eagle and the settlement at Spaulding.
