About this map

The South Branch Goose River meanders through a landscape defined by organized township boundaries in Steele County during the mid-1960s. This survey illustrates the rural character of the eastern North Dakota plains, divided into the distinct districts of Hugo, Edendale, Colgate, and Broadlawn. The hydrologic network is a primary focus, anchored by Fullers Lake and the headwaters of the Elm River in the southeast corner. The presence of a Gravel Pit and a Radio Tower point to the local infrastructure and utility of the land at the time of the 1966 planetable surveys. While largely an agricultural grid, the distribution of water bodies and seasonal wetlands reveals the natural drainage patterns of the Red River Valley hinterland prior to modern extensive land alterations.
