2020 Map of Bowbells NW

About this map

Saint Pauls Evangelical Lutheran Church Cem stands as a focal point for local history in this rural corner of Burke County, situated just south of where Stony Creek winds through the prairie. The landscape is defined by the expansive Upper Des Lacs Lake, which stretches across the northern portion of the region. This 2020 map documents the enduring agricultural character of the territory, organized by a rigid grid of local roads like Co RD 2 and 109th St NW. The settlement of Perella is located near the western edge of the map, illustrating the sparse but persistent distribution of rural communities in the northern plains. Along the northern boundary, the line between the Canada and the United States of America marks the transition into Saskatchewan, underscoring the international significance of this borderland terrain.
