2020 Map of Fordville

About this map

Fordville serves as the primary hub in this portion of Walsh County, situated where the North Branch Forest River and Middle Br Forest River converge toward the main Forest River channel. The landscape is defined by the branching tributaries of the Forest River system, which carve through the plains and eventually reach into Grand Forks County to the south. This 2020 survey illustrates a rural environment shaped by agriculture and water management, with Skunk Coulee marking a distinct drainage feature in the southeast. For those tracing local history, the map identifies the Oak Grove Cem just south of town and the Fordville Airport to the north, while the section-line road network, including Co RD 19 and Co HWY 19, demonstrates the persistent grid of the North Dakota prairie.
