About this map

Argyle serves as the central hub of this Red River Valley landscape, situated where the Burlington Northern railroad intersects the meandering path of the Middle River. The town's layout and surrounding agriculture are defined by water management and transport, visible in the extensive network of drainage channels like County Ditch No 3 and Judicial Ditch No 20. These engineered waterways contrast with the natural curves of Swift Coulee to the south.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks including St Rose Cem and Woodlawn Cem situated just east of the main settlement. Further south along the rail line, the locality of Luna stands amidst the vast agricultural tracts. The map also captures local infrastructure such as a Gaging Station and Wayside Park, reflecting the town's relationship with the river that bisects the township boundaries of Tamarac and Middle River.
