2024 Map of Flora

About this map

The small settlement of Flora serves as the focal point for this Benson County landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the winding course of the Sheyenne River. The river cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, joined by the distinctive Peterson Coulee, creating a localized break in the otherwise steady township and range system. This rural area is marked by a deep sense of lineage, evidenced by the Greenwood Cem / Maddock Cem and the Flora Cem. Aviation plays a notable role in the local infrastructure, with private facilities like the Sabbe Brothers Landing Strip and Gilbertson Field appearing alongside the network of section-line roads, including Co Rd 0319 and Co Rd 0328. The map documents a classic North Dakota prairie community where family-named landmarks and essential water sources define the local geography.
