About this map

Winthrop serves as the primary hub of this Sibley County landscape, where the local street grid intersects with major routes like County Hwy-1 and County Hwy-57. The community's infrastructure is anchored by the Winthrop Post Office, while the outlying rural areas are marked by a transition in land use, evidenced by the presence of several former water bodies including Allen Lakebed, Marsh Lakebed, and Mud Lakebed.

Agricultural drainage patterns are visible through the course of the Middle Branch Rush River in the southeast. For those researching local family history, Saint John's Lutheran Cemetery stands as a significant landmark in the northeastern portion of the quadrangle. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of numbered section roads, such as 246th St and 521st Ave, reflecting the systematic settlement and division of this fertile prairie region.
