1970 Map of Alsen
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The prairie landscape of Cavalier County is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, dividing the land into townships such as Huron, Moscow, Henderson, and Gordon. At the center of this rural network lies the settlement of Alsen, whose Corporate Boundary reflects its role as a local hub. The Soo Line railroad cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving as the primary corridor for agricultural transport through Storlie. This 1970 field check documents the placement of essential community landmarks, including Rosehill Ch and its accompanying Rosehill Cem to the north, and the Alsen Cem located just south of the main town site. Numerous gravel pits dot the terrain, indicating the local extraction industry that supported the region's road network during this era of North Dakota's development.
