About this map

The state line between North Dakota and South Dakota bisects this prairie landscape, where the agricultural grid is marked by small wetlands and rural heritage sites. The border between Richland and Roberts counties separates the northern plains from the southern fields, a region defined by scattered water bodies like Indian Slough. Local history is centered on several pioneer cemeteries that speak to the early settlement of these townships. These include Zion Lutheran Church Cem and Saint Paul's Cem, which both sit along the section roads. Further south, Ferkingstad Cem serves as another quiet landmark of the community's genealogy. The landscape is characterized by a high density of small potholes and seasonal wetlands typical of the Glacial Lake Agassiz region, interlaced with a strictly rectangular road network like Co Rd 25 and 100th St.
