1949 Map of Washburn

About this map

The Missouri River forms a wide curve through the southern portion of this landscape, serving as the border between McLean and Oliver counties. Along the northern banks, the city of Washburn and the village of Hensler stand as key riverfront settlements, connected by the Northern Pacific railroad. To the north, the terrain transitions into a dense grid of rural school districts and family farms, where small community hubs like Underwood and Falkirk sit along the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie line.
