About this map

Willow Lake and a dense network of prairie potholes define this glaciated landscape in Rolette County, situated along the international border. The territory is a patchwork of small water bodies and seasonal wetlands, including Lagerquist Lake, Hellick Lake, and Cavalier Lake, which sit within a grid of rural section roads like County Rd 57 and 23rd Ave NE. Local history is anchored at the Ackworth Cemetery, located just south of Peterson Lake.

Surface water management is visible at the Elwood-Fauske Dam near Gatten Lake, while Willow Creek meanders through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural region where naming conventions often reflect family heritage, seen in landmarks like Bacon Lake and Bergen Lake. This survey provides a clear view of the hydrological complexity of the Turtle Mountain fringes and the North Dakota-Manitoba borderlands.
