2014 Map of Fessenden East

About this map

Fessenden sits at the southwestern corner of this Wells County landscape, serving as a primary point of settlement on the edge of the prairie. The region is defined by the winding course of the James River, which meanders through the central section of the quadrangle, creating a distinct topographical break in the otherwise orderly grid of section line roads. These thoroughfares, such as 48th Ave NE and 20th St NE, facilitate movement across the agricultural heartland. On a rise above the river valley lies the Concordia Cem, a local landmark of genealogical significance. The intersection of ND-15 and ND-30 provides the structural backbone for regional travel, connecting the small community of Fessenden to the wider North Dakota plains.
