2024 Map of Alkaline Lake

About this map

Alkaline Lake dominates the central landscape of this Kidder County territory, surrounded by a complex system of seasonal wetlands and prairie potholes. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, evidenced by several denominational burial grounds including Zoar Evangelical Cem, Friedens Cem, and Peace Lutheran Cem. These small, localized cemeteries reflect the settlement patterns of early agricultural families in the region. The northern edge is protected by the Lake George National Wildlife Refuge, while extensive tracts of the Kidder County Waterfowl Production Area and the Logan County Waterfowl Production Area to the south manage the vital migratory habitats. The section lines are clearly defined by an organized grid of rural roads, such as 41st Ave SE and 54th St SE, which facilitate access across the Kidder and Logan County line near Fresh Lake.
