2011 Map of Crystal

About this map

Crystal and Hoople anchor this section of Walsh County, showcasing the organized grid of the Red River Valley’s agricultural landscape. The region is defined by the winding paths of the North Branch Park River and the Middle Branch Park River, which provide natural relief to the surrounding section lines and farmsteads. Near the northern boundary, Cart Creek meanders toward the Crystal Dam, a focal point just west of the town center. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by landmarks such as the West Point Cemetery in the northwest and the Augustin Seed Farm further east, reflecting the area's deep ties to its farming heritage. The map details a dense network of township roads, including County Rd 12 and numerous numbered streets that have facilitated the transport of grain and seed for generations.
