2011 Map of Gamache Creek

About this map

Gamache Creek and Short Creek define the drainage of this section of Williams County, where the landscape is etched with the precise grid of the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals a rural infrastructure dominated by a network of gravel and section-line roads such as 124th Ave NW and 57th St NW, facilitating transport across the expansive North Dakota prairie. Significant regional transit is marked by County Hwy-15 and County Hwy-42, which serve as the primary conduits for local agricultural commerce. Small seasonal water bodies and depressions dot the northern sections, illustrating the glacial topography characteristic of this region as it appeared in the early 21st century. This survey provides a clear view of land divisions and rural thoroughfares before significant modern development altered the area's footprint.
