2011 Map of Eldridge NW

About this map

Minneapolis Flats Creek meanders across this rural section of Stutsman County, cutting a diagonal path through a landscape defined by an orderly grid of section-line roads. This survey reveals a sparsely populated agricultural region in central North Dakota where the environment is dominated by scattered prairie potholes and small, seasonal wetlands. The most significant permanent water body is Adkinson Lake, situated in the southern portion of the quadrangle just south of the major east-west corridor of 36th St SE. The map provides a detailed view of the local transportation network, including several north-south routes like 73rd Ave SE, which facilitate the movement of goods and people across this open terrain. This documentation is vital for understanding the modern rural infrastructure and natural drainage patterns of the northern Great Plains.
