2011 Map of Hansboro

About this map

Hansboro sits at the northern edge of the North Dakota plains, adjacent to the Manitoba border in a landscape defined by an extensive grid of section roads and scattered glacial prairie potholes. This 2011 survey illustrates the rural character of Towner County, where the township structure remains the dominant organizing force of the land. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Armourdale Lake and the Armourdale Dam provide a rare concentration of surface water amidst the agricultural expanse. The town site of Hansboro itself is concentrated near the intersection of Rolla St and several numbered avenues, while the surrounding territory is laced with thoroughfares such as 108th St Ne and 60th Ave Ne. This map provides a clear record of the intersection between established town sites and the persistent agricultural grid that characterizes the region.
