2014 Map of Golden Valley

About this map

Golden Valley serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, situated where ND-200 cuts through the undulating terrain of Mercer County. The settlement is defined by a grid-patterned core surrounded by a network of rural routes, including CR-26 and CR-20. This 2014 survey reveals a territory shaped by its waterways and small-scale infrastructure, with Goodman Cr and Spring Cr meandering through the draws. The area's community history is preserved in its localized sites, such as the Brecht Strip Airport and three distinct burial grounds: Saint James Cem to the north, Golgotha Cem to the south, and Spring Creek Cem to the west. These features, along with the precise contour mapping, illustrate the intersection of agricultural land use and the natural drainage systems of the North Dakota plains.
