2020 Map of Eckelson SE

About this map

The prairie pothole landscape of Barnes County is defined by its numerous wetlands and glacial depressions, most notably Kee Lake in the northeastern section of this survey. The terrain is structured by the Public Land Survey System, with the boundaries of t139n r61w, t139n r60w, t138n r61w, and t138n r60w converging near the center. This grid-based development is reflected in the network of section-line roads, such as 100th Ave SE and 38th St SE, which have dictated the pattern of agricultural settlement for generations. For those tracing family history in the area, Elim Cem provides a specific point of reference in the southeastern corner, serving as a quiet landmark amidst the vast stretches of cropland and water-filled basins that characterize this portion of North Dakota.
