2014 Map of Hensel

About this map

Hensel serves as the primary focal point of this agricultural landscape in northeastern North Dakota. The settlement is organized around the intersection of Cr-3 and 138th Ave NE, where a Po indicates its continued role as a local service hub. The surrounding terrain is defined by a systematic grid of section roads including 87th St NE and 135th Ave NE, which reflect the region's deep roots in the rectangular survey system. The drainage of the prairie is marked by the winding paths of Willow Cr and Cart Cr, which provide a subtle natural contrast to the rigid geometry of the township roads. This survey illustrates the persistence of small rural communities in Pembina County, showing the intersection of local infrastructure and the natural waterways that shape the Red River Valley’s western edge.
