2022 Map of Greenview

About this map

Greenview and the nearby settlements of Burwell and Harold anchor this portion of the Red River Valley in Polk County, where the landscape is defined by a highly organized system of water management. The terrain is crisscrossed by an extensive network of drainage channels, including County Ditch Number One Hundred Fortyfour and County Ditch Number Seventyfour, which redirect water through the agricultural flats toward Burnham Cr. This complex infrastructure reveals the intensive modification of the natural hydrology required to sustain the region's productive farmland. Cutting diagonally across the north is the Agassiz Recreational Trail-Polk County Trl, occupying a former rail corridor that once connected these rural communities. The map provides a precise view of the section lines and township boundaries, such as t149n r46w, that dictate the grid-like placement of roads and farmsteads throughout the township.
