1971 Map of Bowesmont

About this map

Bowesmont sits at the heart of this Red River Valley landscape, where the transition from traditional river-bound transport to modern interstate travel is clearly visible. The North Red River and Red River meander along the eastern border, marking the boundary between Pembina and Kittson counties. This 1970s survey illustrates a landscape meticulously organized by an extensive drainage system, including County Ditch No 6 and County Ditch No 5, which supports the agricultural productivity of Joliette and Lincoln townships. The arrival of the interstate era is marked by the Bowesmont Interchange and Lincoln Interchange, providing high-speed transit that parallels the older Burlington Northern railroad line. To the south, the small settlement of Pittsburg appears near the border of Drayton township, and a prominent Radio Tower stands as a contemporary landmark in an otherwise flat, open expanse.
