2024 Map of Garrison NE

About this map

Kloestitz German Cem and Saint Paul's Cem anchor this section of McLean County, reflecting the deep-rooted immigrant history of the North Dakota prairies. The landscape is defined by the Public Land Survey System, with a precise grid of section lines and roads such as 16th St NW and 37th Ave NW cutting through the rolling plains north of Garrison. This modern topograhic record reveals a terrain dotted with numerous small wetlands and prairie potholes, characteristic of the glaciated plains. Major regional connectors like Co Hwy 8 and Co Hwy 6 provide the primary east-west transit through this agricultural heartland. The map offers a clear view of the rural settlement pattern, where scattered farmsteads are linked by a network of numbered gravel roads and section lines.
