About this map

Long Lake dominates this section of the North Dakota prairie, stretching across the landscape and defining the local drainage patterns. The map documents the transition from the glaciated plains of Burleigh County into Emmons County at the southern edge of the sheet. Water movement is central to the area's geography, with the lake feeding into Long Lake Creek, also labeled in portions as Long Lake Cr. The terrain is characterized by numerous small wetlands and depressions typical of the Missouri Plateau's pothole region. A strictly organized grid of section lines and rural roads, including 340th St SE and 141st Ave SE, provides the primary structure for land navigation and agricultural organization in this sparsely populated region.
