About this map

Long Lake National Wildlife Refuge dominates the northern landscape of this region where Burleigh, Kidder, and Emmons counties meet. This prairie pothole environment is defined by extensive wetlands and shallow water bodies like Long Lake and Mud Lake, which provide critical habitat in a predominantly agricultural setting. The map reveals a strict section-line road grid, including routes such as 102nd Ave SE and 46th St SE, which partition the undulating terrain into distinct parcels. A notable private landmark, the Preszler Airstrip, sits centrally among these fields, illustrating the reliance on local aviation in this sparsely populated interior. The absence of traditional townsites emphasizes the rural, conservation-focused character of this specific corner of the North Dakota plains during the early twenty-first century.
