2018 Map of Hazen NW

About this map

Lake Sakakawea dominates the northern reaches of this Mercer County landscape, where the waters of Expansion Bay and Beulah Bay cut into the prairie uplands. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by the Public Land Survey System, with a rigid grid of section roads like Co Rd 9 and 55th Ave NW navigating the coulees. For those tracing local history or genealogy, the map identifies several rural burial grounds that anchor the farming community, including Immanuel Cem, Weiderich Cem, and Link Cem. To the south, the landscape transitions toward the drainage of Antelope Cr, maintaining the characteristic North Dakota pattern of dispersed farmsteads and small country cemeteries like Saint Martin Cem and Bethel Cem situated far from municipal centers.
