About this map

The village of Winger serves as the focal point of this northern Minnesota landscape, situated at the junction of Co Hwy 39 and local thoroughfares like Minnesota Ave. The surrounding Polk County terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial water bodies, including Foot Lake, Hedman Lake, and the larger State Lake to the north. These lakes, alongside family-named features like Engemoen Lake and Gosen Lake, illustrate the region's post-glacial topography and historical settlement patterns.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial grounds throughout the township, such as Winger Cem, Calvary Cem, and the more rural Elim Cem and Bethel Cem. To the south, the Sand Hill River meanders across the plains, following a path through t148n r42w and t148n r41w. The map preserves the grid-based rural road system, from Twp Rd 206 to Co Rd 204, which has supported the area's agricultural identity for generations.
