The northern plains of Divide Co North Dakota are defined here by a systematic grid of section roads and the small settlement of Colgan. Located just south of the international border with the United States of America, this landscape is shaped by the Public Land Survey System, with townships like t163n r100w organized around agricultural utility. The terrain is dotted with numerous small wetlands and prairie potholes, the most prominent being Goose Lake in the northwest. A network of rural routes, including 103rd St NW and 137th Ave NW, provides access to the remote homesteads and farmsteads that have sustained this region since the early twentieth century. This map offers a clear view of the modern rural infrastructure in one of the most northerly reaches of the state.
