2017 Map of Belden

About this map

Belden serves as the primary focal point of this Mountrail County landscape, situated where Belden Rd meets the section line grid. This prairie terrain is defined by its agricultural layout, punctuated by a series of small wetlands and potholes typical of the region's glacially formed topography. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies significant communal landmarks such as Knife River Lutheran Cem in the northwestern quadrant and Bethany Cem further east. These sites, along with the systematically numbered routes like 57th St NW and 50th St NW, reflect the enduring township and range system that has organized the North Dakota plains since the era of homesteading.
