About this map

The Red River of the North winds in sharp, dramatic meanders through this Red River Valley landscape, forming the state boundary between North Dakota and Minnesota. This 1939 survey illustrates a highly developed agricultural grid dominated by a complex drainage system, featuring extensive works like County Ditch No 6 and Judicial Ditch No 11. The settlement of Drayton serves as a primary hub along the Northern Pacific railroad, while smaller rail-side communities such as Bowesmont, Pittsburg, and Herrick anchor the surrounding townships.
