2014 Map of Christine

About this map

Christine serves as the central settlement in this Red River Valley landscape, situated where the expansive North Dakota plains meet the meandering border of Minnesota. The geography is defined by two prominent waterways: the tightly winding Red River of the North, which carves the state boundary to the east, and the Wild Rice River, which snakes through the western half of the quadrangle. This 2014 survey documents a rural infrastructure of gravel roads and section lines, connecting the smaller locales of Lithia and Enloe. For local historians and genealogists, the map is particularly useful for its documentation of numerous burial grounds scattered across the townships, including Christine Cem, Pioneer Cem, and South Pleasant Cem. Transportation and aviation are represented by the presence of CR-81 and the Flying-N-Ranch Airport, illustrating the continued importance of both regional transit and local airfields in this agricultural corridor.
