2015 Map of Hecla

About this map

Hecla serves as the primary center of activity in this 2015 survey, situated in the plains of Brown County near the state line. The James River meanders through the central corridor of the quadrangle, defining the hydrology of the region alongside Hyatt Slough and Dry Run. The settlement of Hecla is meticulously detailed with its street grid, including Main St, Elm St, and Ash St, along with the location of the local Po. The surrounding landscape is dominated by a precise section-line road network, such as 104th St and 404th Ave, which highlights the enduring agrarian structure of the area where North Dakota and South Dakota meet. This map is an essential resource for understanding the contemporary geography of these borderland townships, from the wetlands of the slough to the residential heart of the town.
