About this map

The northern prairie of Burleigh County is defined by the glacial wetlands and depressions of Hazel Grove and Harriet. In the late 1970s, this landscape is a patchwork of conservation efforts, featuring large tracts of the National Waterfowl Production Area and the Arena State Game Management Area surrounding numerous prairie potholes and lakes. The small settlement of Arena sits at the southern edge of the map along the Burlington Northern railroad line. Local history is anchored by the Townhall and the nearby St Johns Cem, reflecting a rural community deeply tied to its geography. The map also documents the hydrology of the region, from the large expanse of Florence Lake to the smaller Twin Lakes and Horseshoe Lake, providing a clear view of the terrain before modern agricultural alterations changed many such prairie environments.
