2014 Map of Braddock NW

About this map

Long Lake dominates this prairie landscape, stretching across a series of glacial depressions near the southern border of Burleigh County. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section-line roads, such as 48th Ave SE and 340th St SE, which define the agricultural character of this North Dakota region. The seasonal nature of the local hydrology is evident in the winding path of Long Lake Creek, which drains into the larger basin from the southwest. This 2014 survey captures a moment of modern land management where the geometric precision of the road network contrasts with the irregular, shifting shoreline of the lake. Located near the Burleigh and Emmons county line, the area remains primarily rural, with the topography showing subtle elevation changes characteristic of the surrounding plains.
