About this map

The Canada United States border defines the northern edge of this landscape, marked by a Port of Entry U S Customs along the boundary between Manitoba and Minnesota. This agricultural region in Kittson County is characterized by an extensive network of drainage channels, notably State Ditch No 84, which manages the low-lying terrain near the Skull Lake State Wildlife Management Area. The settlement pattern is scattered, with small hubs like the community of Granville and landmarks such as Holy Rosary Ch providing focal points for the rural population.

Transportation is anchored by the Soo Line railroad cutting diagonally across the southwestern corner, paralleling the Granville township line. Aviation is represented by the Lancaster Municipal Airport in the south. Local genealogy is supported by the presence of Sikar Cem and several Gravel Pits, reflecting the area's physical development and the community's reliance on both land management and transit at this mid-1970s moment.
