Fordville sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape in the Red River Valley region, where the three branches of the Forest River converge. The town is flanked by its local infrastructure, including the Fordville Airport and the nearby Oak Grove Cem. This 2017 survey reveals the intricate water management of the area, anchored by the Fordville Dam on the main branch of the river. The terrain transitions between the flat till plains and the carved drainage of Skunk Coulee, while the land is neatly divided by an extensive network of rural roads such as Co Rd 19 and Co Hwy 19. This modern perspective captures the persistent grid of the Public Land Survey System, showing how the boundaries of Walsh and Grand Forks Counties dictate the local geography.
