2014 Map of Beach East

About this map

Beach sits at the western edge of this Golden Valley County landscape, where the local grid of Main St and 4th St NE transitions into the expansive agricultural sections of the North Dakota plains. The regional transportation network is anchored by the presence of Beach Airport and the modern path of Interstate 94, accompanied here by I-94 Frontage Rd. These routes cut through a terrain defined by subtle drainage patterns, most notably the winding course of Little Beaver Cr and the eastward flow of Andrews Cr. The map captures the quiet transition between the concentrated settlement at Beach and the outlying rural siding or locality of Chama. A dense network of section line roads, such as 167th Ave SW and 30th St SW, organizes the territory into the traditional township-and-range blocks characteristic of the American West.
