2024 Map of Appam

About this map

Appam sits at a crossroads of the northern plains, where the grid of rural section roads meets the natural curves of the Little Muddy River. This 2024 landscape in Williams County is defined by its conservation areas, including the Lake Zahl National Wildlife Refuge and the Williams County Waterfowl Production Area, which protect vital wetlands like Alkali Lake and Green Lake. The topography is marked by glacial features such as Indian Hill and the distinctive Horseshoe Bend along the river. For genealogists and local researchers, the map identifies several rural burial grounds that speak to the area's pioneer heritage, including Bethany Cem near the river and Hauge Cem in the southeastern corner. The transition from the high ground of the Missouri Coteau to the river valley is clearly illustrated through the network of county roads like 134th Ave NW and 80th St NW.
