2011 Map of Fillmore

About this map

Fillmore is the primary settlement on this North Dakota prairie landscape, situated near the intersection of 38th Ave NE and 53rd St NE. The geography is defined by a dense concentration of wetlands and pothole lakes typical of the region, ranging from the expansive Cranberry Lake in the southeast to smaller bodies like Sand Lake and Long Lake. This network of water across the terrain suggests a legacy of glacial activity that shaped the drainage patterns visible here in the early 21st century. Local history and genealogy are centered on the community at Fillmore and the nearby Saint Anne Cemetery, which serves the surrounding rural township. The grid-like road system, including thoroughfares such as County Rd 0305 and Slotto Rd, provides a clear view of the agricultural division of the land and the sparse distribution of farmsteads between the lake basins.
