2011 Map of Climax SW

About this map

Red River of the North winds through the far northeastern corner of this landscape, marking the border between North Dakota and Minnesota. The terrain is characterized by the expansive agricultural plains typical of the Red River Valley, dissected by the meandering path of Buffalo Coulee. This 2011 survey reveals a highly organized rural grid system defined by routes such as County Hwy-21 and County Hwy-4, which facilitate the region's farming economy. For those tracing family histories or local burial sites, the map identifies two significant landmarks: Hillstead Cemetery in the north and Salem Cemetery to the south. These quiet grounds, situated alongside the straight-line county roads, serve as primary historical markers in an otherwise open, working landscape.
