About this map

Moscow, Minto, and Grey townships define this section of Cavalier County as it appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of small depressions and seasonal water bodies typical of the prairie pothole region, where agricultural field boundaries and section lines dictate the human footprint. Rural community life is anchored by locations such as Our Saviors Ch and a central Townhall, which served as local gathering points for the surrounding farmsteads. Several Gravel Pit and Gravel Pits operations are scattered across the terrain, indicating the local extraction of glacial materials used for road building. This survey provides a clear look at the infrastructure of the northern plains before significant modern consolidation, preserving the locations of specific country churches and civic buildings.
