1967 Map of Ayr NW

About this map

The Great Northern railroad corridor serves as the primary north-south spine for this agricultural landscape on the border of Cass, Traill, and Steele Counties. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map reveals a highly structured grid of townships including Broadlawn, Galesburg, Page, and Dows. The land use is defined by large-scale farming, evidenced by the numerous fine dashed lines indicating field boundaries and the presence of small private aviation facilities like Conrad Landing Strip and a secondary Landing Strip.
