2014 Map of Derrick

About this map

Derrick centers this agricultural landscape in Ramsey County, characterized by a dense network of glacial prairie potholes and wetlands. The terrain is defined by its subtle drainage patterns, most notably Edmore Coulee, which winds through the southern section of the quadrangle. As a modern 2014 survey, it documents the persistent section-line road grid that has structured North Dakota farming for over a century, including Co Road 4 and Nd-17. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies Prospect Cem in the northeast, a vital landmark for tracing the early families of this rural community. The township structure remains remarkably intact, with primary travel corridors like 74th St NE and 97th Ave NE providing the skeleton for the region's wheat and small-grain agricultural operations.
