The borderlands of Burke County meet the international boundary with Canada in this northern North Dakota landscape, centered on the small plains community of Columbus. The area is defined by its agricultural grid and the winding course of the West Branch Short Creek, which flows northward across the prairie. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with cemetery records, identifying the Saint Olaf Cem near Larson and the Pleasant Prairie Cem to the north.
