2015 Map of Whitestone Lake

About this map

Whitestone Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, set against the rising elevation of the Coteau des Prairies. This highland plateau, which separates the Missouri and Big Sioux River drainage basins, dictates the local terrain and the distribution of water bodies like Lake Emma and Greys Lake. The map reveals a transition from traditional rural land use to modern residential development, specifically at Long Hollow Housing and the Valley View Estates near the Long Hollow valley. Local history is anchored by three distinct burial grounds—Spring Valley Cem, Roy Cem, and Saint Benedict Cem—located primarily along the Marshall and Roberts county line. The presence of Sieche Hollow in the northwest corner highlights the dramatic topographical breaks common along the edge of the Coteau.
