2016 Map of Climax
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The Red River of the North winds in tight, serpentine oxbows along the border of Minnesota and North Dakota, defining the western edge of this Polk County landscape. This 2016 survey illustrates the agricultural character of the Red River Valley, where the grid of county roads meets the natural meanders of the river. The small settlement of Climax sits at the junction of Co Rd 220 and Highway 75, while Nielsville anchors the southern portion of the map near the Nielsville Airport. Family history is preserved through localized landmarks such as Skatvold Cem, Bergit Cem, and Sundet Cem. The hydrological complexity of the region is evident in the confluence of the Sand Hill River and the extensive drainage systems like County Ditch Number One Hundred Sixtysix that support the surrounding farmland.
