2011 Map of Braddock NW

About this map

Long Lake dominates this section of Burleigh County, its sprawling shoreline stretching diagonally across the prairie landscape. The water body is the central geographic feature, fed and drained by the winding course of Long Lake Creek as it meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle. This 2011 survey illustrates a highly structured rural environment defined by the Public Land Survey System, with a rigid grid of section-line roads like 102nd Ave SE and 353rd St SE providing access to the surrounding agricultural fields. The map captures the quiet, open character of the North Dakota plains, where the natural contours of the lake basin provide the only break in the geometric regularity of the county's road network.
