2011 Map of Baldhill Dam

About this map

Baldhill Dam controls the southern reach of Lake Ashtabula in this section of Barnes County, where the reservoir fills the winding valley of the Sheyenne River. The map highlights a rural landscape organized by a strict grid of section roads, including 21st St SE and 117th Ave SE, which provide access to the waterfront. Recreational and residential access points along the eastern shore are noted at Katie Olson Lndg and Saders Lndg, reflecting the area's development as a regional hub for water-based activity. Downstream from the main reservoir, the smaller Schug Dam further regulates the river as it meanders southward. The proximity of River Rd to the dam works suggests the central importance of this infrastructure to the local geography and transportation network.
