1964 Map of Climax SW

About this map

Buffalo Coulee meanders through the central Red River Valley, defining the rural character of these township lands in the mid-1960s. The landscape is primarily organized by the townships of Stavanger, Belmont, Ervin, and Bingham, where small community hubs like Townhall and School No 5 once anchored local life. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of several pioneer-era focal points, including Grue Ch and its neighboring Hillstead Cem, as well as Salem Ch and Salem Cem further south. These sites, often situated near the section lines of the survey grid, represent the religious and social foundations of the Norwegian-American agricultural communities that settled this part of Traill County. The northeastern corner touches the Red River, featuring Belmont Park and the Ringsaker Ch Cem along the winding riverbanks.
