2011 Map of Carrington West

About this map

Carrington serves as the primary hub of this eastern North Dakota landscape, organized by a precise grid of rural avenues and township roads. The settlement's western edge is defined by Matheny Field, while the local history of the community is anchored by the Carrington Cemetery situated northeast of the main residential streets. The hydrology of the region is dominated by the winding course of Pipestem Creek, which flows southeastward toward Little Pipestem Creek. This 2011 survey reveals a transition from the structured street plan of the town to the open prairie and slough country characteristic of Foster County. Smaller water bodies like Scotts Slough and Russell Lake dot the agricultural plains, alongside man-made infrastructure like the Wyard Dam and the more remote Longview Cemetery, providing a detailed view of the area's development and land use in the early 21st century.
