About this map

Elm River meanders through this portion of Traill County, cutting a winding path through the North Dakota prairie. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, where section lines are traced by local roads such as 150th Ave SE and 7th St SE. This geometry reflects the enduring agricultural organization of the Red River Valley region, where property lines and transport routes have remained largely unchanged for generations.

Stordahl Cem serves as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians, situated amidst the fields in the southern half of the quadrangle. The map details the intersection of regional thoroughfares like Co Hwy 1 and Traill Co 14, illustrating the connectivity of this rural landscape. The lack of dense residential settlements underscores the area's focus on large-scale farming and the preservation of open space along the river's riparian corridor.
