2011 Map of Appert Lake

About this map

West Branch Long Lake Creek and Spring Creek define the drainage of this agrarian landscape in Emmons County. The terrain is organized by a rigid section-line grid of rural roads, including 9th Ave SE and 70th St SE, which facilitate access to the surrounding farmsteads. The most significant man-made landmark is the Appert Lake Dam, a water management feature that reflects the region's reliance on controlled irrigation and drainage in the northern plains. This early 21st-century survey documents the persistent rural character of the area, where the vast majority of the land remains dedicated to agriculture and natural watercourses.
