2011 Map of Bonetraill SE

About this map

Cow Creek and Sand Creek wind through the high plains of Williams County, defining the drainage patterns of this sparsely settled section of northwestern North Dakota. The landscape is organized by a rigid section-line road grid, including 66th St NW and 144th Ave NW, which connects isolated farmsteads and agricultural operations. Evidence of the area's rural heritage is preserved at the Cow Creek Cemetery and Saint George Cemetery, both situated along the local road network. The southern portion of the quadrangle is anchored by County Hwy 6, a primary east-west corridor for the region. This 2011 survey illustrates the enduring intersection of systematic township surveying and the natural watercourses that have historically guided land use in the Northern Plains.
