About this map

Glacial depressions and marshy basins define this prairie landscape in Stutsman County, where numerous sloughs punctuate the agricultural sections. The map reveals a rural structure organized around local community hubs, such as the Community Hall in the eastern reaches and the Friedens Cem in the southwest. The presence of School No 1 and School No 4 near School Lake illustrates the distributed educational system of the mid-20th century before school consolidation reshaped the rural Midwest. These features, along with the distinct boundaries of Bloomenfield and Sinclair, provide a detailed look at the human footprint on the land. The topography is dominated by natural drainage features like Trautman Slough, Runner Slough, and Balch Slough, showing the complex hydrology of the region prior to extensive modern alterations.
