2024 Map of Glenburn

About this map

Glenburn stands as the primary hub of this northern prairie landscape, situated near the southern boundary of Renville Co. The map illustrates a strictly organized grid of agricultural roads, such as 83rd St NW and 24th Ave NW, which carve the terrain into neat sections. This layout reflects the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the North Dakota plains, where human settlement and transportation lines follow precise geometric patterns across the drainage of Spring Coulee. Within the town, local history is anchored by the Saint Philomena Catholic Cem and Fairview Cem, located just off Main St. To the south, an unusual feature labeled Judy Strip runs parallel to Glenburn Rd, while the northern reaches of the quadrangle cross into Bottineau Co, showing the transition between county jurisdictions amidst a scattering of wetlands and small water bodies.
