About this map

The Divide County Waterfowl Production Area dominates this prairie landscape, where the county line separates Divide and Burke Counties. This modern survey reveals a region defined by its conservation areas and dispersed rural sites. For those tracing local history, the Prairie Chapel Cem and Larson Lutheran Cem stand as significant landmarks of the community's early settlement and religious heritage. The drainage of West Branch Short Creek cuts through the northern sections, illustrating the natural water management of the high plains. The map is organized by the Public Land Survey System, showing several townships including t162n r95w and t161n r94w, which provide a clear grid for locating specific family homesteads or historic land tracts across these northern North Dakota counties.
