2017 Map of Gilby

About this map

Gilby serves as the primary hub in this portion of Grand Forks County, situated along a grid of section roads that define the region's agricultural character. The town is flanked to the south by the Prairie Home Cem, while further south, the smaller settlement of Honeyford sits near the junction of Co Rd 2 and Co Rd 14. The landscape is characterized by the meandering path of the Turtle River, which breaks the geometric precision of the township and range lines as it flows through the southeastern quadrant. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the enduring rural structure of the Red River Valley, where modern county roads like Co Rd 11 follow long-established survey lines to connect isolated farmsteads and small communities.
