About this map

The Chicago and North Western railroad corridor defines the development of Jackson and Cottonwood Counties in this 1970 survey. The settlement of Wilder serves as a central hub, while the larger town of Windom occupies the northeastern corner along the banks of the Des Moines River. This prairie landscape is heavily shaped by agricultural engineering, evidenced by an extensive network of drainage systems including Judicial Ditch No 22 and Judicial Ditch No 3, which manage the water levels of the region's numerous glacial basins.
