2020 Map of Colgan West

About this map

The prairie landscape of Divide County is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and secondary roads just south of the border with Canada. Colgan stands as the primary settlement on this sheet, situated along a transportation corridor that cuts through the agricultural heartland. The terrain is characterized by numerous small wetlands and depressions typical of the glaciated plains, with Goose Lake serving as the most prominent water body in the northern portion of the quadrangle. The map detail reflects the persistence of the rectangular survey system, where routes like 134th Ave NW and 103rd St NW provide the infrastructure for a region shaped by large-scale farming and isolated homesteads. This 2020 edition from the U.S. Geological Survey captures the modern configuration of these rural routes and township boundaries, including t163n r100w and t164n r100w.
