2014 Map of Greene

About this map

Lake Darling dominates the central valley of this Renville County landscape, where the waters are held in a long, narrow reservoir created by the damming of the Souris River. The small settlement of Greene sits along the western bluffs overlooking the lake, serving as a primary point of reference in this sparsely populated region. The terrain is characterized by the sharp contrast between the deep river valley and the surrounding high plains, which are etched with a geometric grid of rural routes such as 86th St NW and 47th Ave NW. This 2014 survey captures the area's modern topography, showing the intricate contour lines of the coulees and draws that feed into the river system, a critical detail for understanding the drainage patterns of the North Dakota prairie.
