2011 Map of Wolff Lake

About this map

Spring Creek meanders across this rural landscape along the North Dakota and South Dakota border, feeding into Wolff Lake. The region is defined by a sparse settlement pattern typical of the Great Plains, with the small community of Lowell situated on the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Significant for genealogical research, the map identifies two distinct burial sites: the Lutheran Cemetery and the Johannestal Cemetery, reflecting the heritage of the local farming families. The infrastructure is characterized by a strict section-line grid of roads, including 101st St SE and 47th Ave SE, which facilitate travel between the scattered farmsteads. Near the southern waters, the Wolff Lake Dam indicates local water management efforts in this predominantly agricultural territory.
