About this map

Pembina Co and Walsh Co meet along a surveyed boundary line in this agricultural landscape of northeastern North Dakota. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the N Br Park River and the smaller drainage of Cart Cr, which carve subtle paths through the flat prairie. This 2014 survey documents the highly organized section-line road grid typical of the Red River Valley, where gravel and paved routes like ND-66 and ND-18 provide the primary infrastructure for the region's expansive farming operations. A distinctive local geographical feature known as The Coulee breaks the geometric regularity of the fields, illustrating how natural water drainage patterns continue to influence land use and property boundaries even in a heavily engineered rural environment.
