2011 Map of Grahams Island

About this map

Devils Lake dominates the eastern half of this North Dakota landscape, its irregular shoreline and varied water depths surrounding the landmass of Grahams Island. The terrain is characterized by the complex interaction between water and land, where low-lying points and seasonal inlets define the perimeter of the island. A sparse but structured grid of local routes provides access across the interior, including 71st Ave NE and 44th St NE, which serve the agricultural and recreational needs of the Benson County area. To the south, BIA Road 24 crosses through the wetland-heavy southern portion of the island. The map details a moment in time when the rising waters of the basin have significantly reshaped the local geography, creating the distinct peninsular and island forms seen along Oram Dr and the developments at 6 Mile Hts.
