2010 Map of Gatzke SE

About this map

Mud River and Lost River define the drainage of this portion of Marshall County, winding through a landscape organized by a precise grid of rural roads and section lines. The terrain is notably flat, characterized by agricultural use and sparsely distributed landmarks like Arthur Field and Klamar Field in the north. The map traces the rectilinear development of the modern township system, where routes such as County Hwy-7 and 340th St NE provide the primary infrastructure for the farming community. A subtle marker for Agassiz indicates the regional connection to the prehistoric glacial lake bed that shaped this fertile but level plain. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey records the persistent rural character of the region, where the intersection of watercourses and section roads remains the primary geographic framework.
