2018 Map of Golden Lake

About this map

The glaciated plains of Steele County are defined by a chain of significant water bodies including Golden Lake and the smaller Golden Rush Lake to its west. This agricultural landscape in eastern North Dakota is partitioned by a rigid grid of section lines and county roads, such as Co Hwy 23 and 8th St NE, which facilitate movement between the vast fields and the wetland complexes that dot the region. The map captures the distinct shoreline developments along the eastern edge of the water, where routes like Golden Shores Dr and Sunset Dr indicate a pocket of residential or recreational activity contrasting with the surrounding township lands. Drainage is managed through natural watercourses like Beaver Cr in the north and the Middle Br Goose River, which meanders through the southern sections of T147N R55W and T147N R56W.
