2022 Map of Wilder
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The town of Wilder serves as a central point in this prairie landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a complex network of managed waterways including Judicial Ditch Number Fiftyfour and Judicial Ditch Number Seventyfour. To the northeast, the Des Moines River passes near Windom, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by a chain of glacial water bodies, most notably the edge of Heron Lake and the smaller Teal Lake. This area of southwestern Minnesota shows a long-established pattern of rural life, evidenced by several community burial sites such as Wilder Cem, Delafield Cem, and Saint Peter Cem. The topography is shaped by the transition between Cottonwood and Jackson counties, featuring a mix of wetland depressions like String Lakes and Timber Lake alongside a high density of rural section roads and local highways.
