About this map

Witoka and Ridgeway anchor this portion of Winona County, where the high ground of Pleasant Ridge and Homer Ridge dictates the local geography. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys and ridges, with water flowing through Homer Creek, Cedar Creek, and Corey Creek. A notable concentration of water management features is visible in the north, including the Pleasant Valley Site Number 10 Dam and several related detention structures.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites scattered across the township, such as Pleasant Valley Cemetery, Saint Patricks Cemetery, and Hillside Cemetery. The map also illustrates the transition from rural township roads like PH TWP 25 to the more modern thoroughfare of County Hwy 12, reflecting the ongoing balance between agricultural heritage and modern connectivity in this corner of Minnesota.
