About this map

The settlement of Blaisdell serves as the focal point of this Mountrail County landscape, where the prairie grid is interrupted by a high density of small wetlands and potholes. These glacial depressions characterize the terrain across several townships, including t156n r89w and t156n r88w, influencing the winding paths of local routes like the Prairie Trl. North of the main community, Saint Margarets Catholic Cem stands as a significant landmark for genealogical research in this rural corridor.

Transportation patterns are defined by the east-west passage of 86th Ave NW and the legacy path of Old Hwy 2. The map illustrates a contemporary rural environment where Section lines and modern roads, such as 67th Ave NW and 60th St NW, provide structure to a landscape heavily defined by its natural hydrology. This 2020 survey documents the intersection of agricultural land management and the region's characteristic wetland features.
