1991 Map of Eldridge SW

About this map

National Waterfowl Production Area parcels dominate this 1990s prairie landscape, reflecting a region dedicated to conservation within the Prairie Pothole Region of North Dakota. The terrain is defined by the expansive Lippert Flats and the meandering path of Beaver Creek, which cuts through the southern half of the quadrangle. This survey, updated from mid-century topographic records, shows a sparse settlement pattern characteristic of Stutsman County. Boundary lines for Moon Lake, Cousator, and Lenton townships delineate the rural infrastructure, where small seasonal wetlands and depressions are scattered across the plains. The map highlights the intersection of public conservation lands and private agricultural holdings during a period of modern environmental management.
