1931 Map of Devils Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

The city of Devils Lake serves as a hub of the prairie landscape in this late 1920s survey, situated at the intersection of the Great Northern and the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroads. The topography is defined by its complex glacial hydrology, featuring the expansive waters of Creel Bay and Sixmile Bay, alongside significant bodies like Sweetwater Lake and Dry Lake. To the south, the military and recreational presence at Camp Grafton and the adjacent Rifle Range sits near the resort community of Lakewood (Chautauqua PO). This era of North Dakota history is captured through a dense network of rural infrastructure, including Consolidated School No 1 and various township schoolhouses that supported the farming communities in Freshwater and Morris. The map also records the early state highway system, such as State Highway No 2, which provided vital terrestrial links between settlements like Grand Harbor and the neighboring counties of Ramsey Co and Benson Co.
