2015 Map of Frederick SW

About this map

Elm Lake and the meandering course of the Elm River dominate this portion of the northern plains, where the McPherson Co Brown Co line bisects a landscape defined by the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals the rigid grid of the Dakotas, where gravel and section roads like 373rd Ave and 105th St navigate around the natural drainages of Dry Run and the river’s wide, branching basin. This 2015 survey provides a clear look at the intersection of modern county infrastructure, including Cr-2, and the hydrologic features that have dictated the placement of homesteads and fields in this agricultural region for generations.
