About this map

The town of Dodge serves as the central hub of this Great Plains survey, situated along the east-west corridor of ND-200. The surrounding landscape is defined by the winding paths of Spring Cr, Goodman Cr, and Cottonwood Cr, which cut through the undulating prairie. A rigid grid of rural roads, including 80th Ave SW and 7th St SW, organizes the agricultural territory across the Dunn and Mercer county line.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several remote burial sites scattered across the landscape, such as Saint Pauls Cem to the north and Spring Creek Cem to the east. The southern portion of the quadrangle includes the Loring Cem, marking the locations of early area families and congregations. The map reflects a classic North Dakota settlement pattern where small community centers like Dodge are linked by a network of sectional roads and natural waterways.
