2024 Map of Binford NW

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and conservation lands define this landscape along the border of Nelson Co Griggs Co. The map captures a high-resolution view of the managed wetlands within the Nelson County Waterfowl Production Area, a vital habitat for migratory birds in the northern plains. For those tracing local history, several small landmarks persist in the rural sections, including Saint Johns Cem near the northeastern edge and Bergen Cem situated centrally. Transportation is primarily confined to a structured grid of township roads such as 22nd St NE and Co Rd 25, which navigate around the numerous seasonal sloughs and Ottofy Lake. The inclusion of the Breckheimer Airport highlights the continued reliance on small-scale aviation for agricultural and private use in this sparsely populated stretch of the Red River Valley hinterland.
