2014 Map of Colgate

About this map

The Maple River meanders across this rural landscape, carving a winding path through the prairie terrain of eastern North Dakota. This section of the Red River Valley hinterlands is defined by a rigid section-line grid of gravel roads and the diagonal transit corridor of ND-38. The small settlement of Colgate serves as a primary point of reference in the northeast, where Main Ave and Front Ave meet the highway. Further south, the map identifies Walden, a location situated along the secondary road network. The geography here is marked by the complex intersection of county lines, where Steele Co, Barnes Co, and Cass Co converge. This survey offers a clear view of modern agricultural land division and the persistent small-town footprints that characterize the region's contemporary rural structure.
