About this map

Edmore Coulee meanders through this agricultural landscape in Ramsey County, defining the drainage patterns across a grid of section-line roads. The terrain is characterized by numerous small prairie potholes and depressions, typical of the drift prairie region, which collect seasonal water and punctuate the open fields. This 2014 survey reveals the organized infrastructure of the high plains, where North Dakota's township and range system is clearly visible through the network of north-south avenues like 90th Ave Ne and east-west streets such as 60th St Ne. Local transit is facilitated by county-level arteries including Co Road 22A and Cr-8, which link the surrounding rural farmsteads and provide access to the drainages of the coulee system. The map serves as a precise record of the land division and hydraulic features that sustain the region's farming economy.
