2022 Map of Flaming

About this map

Flaming and the surrounding agricultural lands of Norman County are depicted here during the early 2020s, showing a landscape defined by an orderly grid of township roads and deep-rooted community landmarks. This corner of the Red River Valley remains a place of quiet continuity, where the meandering course of Spring Creek provides a natural break in the geometric section lines. Several cemeteries, including Old Sundal Cem, Spring Creek Cem, and Luchau Cem, anchor the map with sites of genealogical significance, tracing the heritage of the families who settled this fertile prairie. Modern land use is evident in the Agassiz Recreational Trail: Norman County Trl, which repurposes historic corridors for contemporary use, while the small settlement of Gary appears in the southeastern corner, connected by a network of county roads including County Road 143.
