About this map

Lake Ashtabula dominates the southeastern corner of this landscape, formed by the impoundment of the Sheyenne River. This high-plains region along the border of Griggs and Barnes Counties is characterized by a grid of agricultural section roads such as 12th St SE and 17th St SE crossing a terrain punctuated by prairie potholes and wetlands. The confluence of Baldhill Creek and the river valley provides significant topographic relief compared to the surrounding farm tracts. Local history is anchored by the Sunnyside Cem / Ladbury Cem and Saint Marys Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the area's rural settlement. For modern recreation, the N Country National Scenic Trail winds along the western bluffs of the lake, offering a continuous path through the river valley and over the Ashtabula Bridge.
