Hi Jon,
Short answer: there really aren't any.

Long answer:
For EN15 the best I've found are good take-offs.  Despite being in Cerro Gordo towwnship (Big Hill), its FLAT.  All the land around here is basically 1050'.  Most of the E-W roads have good shoulders and clear (1 to 2 mile) take-offs.  There are some tree-claims, but not a lot.  The Lac qui Parle River (just S of the corner) is forested, but not too much else.

>From US212, approx. 4 mi E of Dawson, take Cty 27 North.  At 4-1/2 mi you're at 45* N.  The corner is ~1 mi W of you (in the hole, naturally).  At 5 mi, you cross Cty 20, and Cty 27 changes to Cty 73.  Continue N 3 mi to County 26.  Turn W on 26.  2-1/2 mi W is "Cerro Gordo."  I've operated along here (I think.  It could have been the parallel road 1 mi S.)  

There is a small hill about 2 mi N of Madison along US 75, but I've never operated there.  Don't remember why.  It is in EN15.

EN14, EN24, and EN25 operations have just been where-ever I could pull safely off the road (most -all ?- are gravel).

Good Hunting.
