About this map

Winsted and Lester Prairie anchor this section of the Minnesota prairie, situated at a tripartite boundary where Wright, McLeod, and Carver Counties meet. The landscape is a complex network of glacial lakebeds and active waters, including Winsted Lake, Butler Lake, and the meandering S Fork Crow River. The map provides significant genealogical value through its detailed labeling of numerous burial grounds such as Holy Trinity Cem, Nylunda Cem, and the Swedish Cem.

Transport and infrastructure are defined by a grid of county highways and local roads like MN-261 and Common St SW. The area's agricultural character is interspersed with specialized sites like the Winsted Municipal Airport and Serenity Airport, alongside recreation at the Shadowbrooke Golf Course. Drainage patterns are visible through several engineered waterways, including Judicial Ditch Number One and County Ditch Number Thirtytwo.
