About this map

Armourdale sits within the prairie landscape of Towner County, defined by its position at the junction of the Soo Line and Burlington Northern railroads. This 1970s survey captures a rural landscape transitioning through mid-century agricultural patterns, where the townships of Armourdale and Howell are marked by a network of section lines and scattered Gravel Pits.

The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the Rock Lake National Wildlife Refuge, where the waters of Rock Lake and Mauvais Coulee provide a distinct contrast to the surrounding cultivated fields. Local heritage is preserved at the IOOF Cem and the uniquely named All Nations Cem, offering specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in these northern prairie townships.
