2011 Map of Fingal SW

About this map

The Sheyenne River meanders through this portion of Barnes County, creating a distinct riparian corridor against the surrounding agricultural grid. This 2011 survey highlights several small-scale water management points along the river and its local tributaries, including Anderson Dam, Stevens Dam, and the hyphenated Thoreson-Monson Dam. These features indicate the critical role of water control in the North Dakota plains, where seasonal flow and drainage shape the land's utility. The area is largely defined by a systematic road network, from established routes like County Rd-21 to local sections like 40th St SE and 120th Ave SE. A notable terrain feature, Sheyenne Valley Est, sits tucked into a bend of the river, suggesting a localized geographic or residential distinction within the broader prairie landscape.
