2014 Map of Burgess

About this map

Burgess serves as a central reference point in this corner of Morton County, where the high plains of North Dakota are carved by subtle drainage systems. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Louse Cr in the south and the E Fork Chanta Peta Cr to the north, creating a series of draws and rises typical of the region's topography. Notable elevations including Township Hill and Van Duesen Hill provide distinct landmarks across the section lines. The map captures a transition in the local infrastructure, with Nd-21 and Cr-82 intersecting amidst a grid of rural routes such as 64th St and 31st Ave, illustrating the enduring spatial organization of the state's agricultural heartland in the early 21st century.
