2014 Map of Cavalier NW OE N

About this map

The international border with Canada defines the southern edge of this northern landscape, marking the transition between North Dakota and Manitoba. The terrain is characterized by the meandering path of Buffalo Cr, which winds through the territory as a primary hydrological feature. This 2014 survey focuses on a remote section of the borderlands, where the drainage patterns of the creek and the geometric precision of the international boundary are the most prominent markers of human and natural geography. The map provides a look at the open rural expanse just north of the 49th parallel, captured during the early 21st century before modern satellite-only mapping became the standard.
