2014 Map of Epworth

About this map

The settlement of Epworth anchors this northwestern North Dakota landscape, a region defined by a regular grid of section roads and the winding path of Shell Cr. This 2014 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the rural character of Mountrail County, where the elevation changes are marked by fine-lined contour intervals. For those researching family history or local land use, Johns Cem stands as a significant landmark in the northeast quadrant. The map detail reflects the persistence of original township planning, with numbered routes like 49th St NW and 75th Ave NW providing the primary structure for movement across the prairie. The drainage of Shell Cr cuts diagonally through the southern half of the sheet, introducing variations in the otherwise orderly agricultural layout.
