About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and marshy wetlands define the landscape of this southeastern North Dakota region. Spanning the border of Ransom and Sargent Counties, the map highlights the preservation of critical habitats within the Ransom County Waterfowl Production Area and the Sargent County Waterfowl Production Area. These protected areas, along with smaller parcels like Rcwpa and Rc Wpa, reflect a terrain dominated by low-lying depressions and water-filled basins characteristic of the region’s hydrology.

A precise grid of section lines and gravel roads, including 117th Ave SE and 75th St SE, segments the landscape into its classic township and range blocks. This layout illustrates the enduring agricultural property boundaries that have shaped the plains for over a century. The relative lack of permanent structures emphasizes the area’s primary use for seasonal conservation and farming within t133n r58w and surrounding townships.
