About this map

The town of Westbrook serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape in the late 1960s, situated at the intersection of the Chicago and North Western railroad and local transport routes. The terrain is defined by its agricultural and hydrological character, featuring a complex network of waterways including Dutch Charley Creek and Highwater Creek. A notable topographical feature is the Snow Lakebed to the northwest, indicating the region's glacial legacy and shifting drainage patterns.

Southwest of the main settlement, the Des Moines River flows near Lake Louisa, while the eastern portion of the map is punctuated by Bean Lake and Double Lake. Conservation and utility are balanced across the quadrangle, from the National Wildlife Management Area to the local Landing Strip and Sewage Disposal Ponds. This survey also preserves the locations of numerous Gravel Pits and a central Cemetery, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure of Cottonwood County.
