2018 Map of Horsehead Lake

About this map

Horsehead Lake dominates the central and eastern portions of this North Dakota landscape, its broad basin surrounded by the characteristic prairie pothole topography of Kidder County. The water levels and marshy margins of this lake and nearby Cherry Lake define the local geography, influencing the placement of the township grid roads that navigate around the depressions. In the northern reaches of the map, the Kleve Cem stands as a quiet marker of the area's pioneer heritage, located just south of 21st St SE. The map captures the agricultural organization of the territory into Township 141 and 142 North, where a network of section line roads including 31st Ave SE and 24th St SE provide access to the rural farmsteads and wetlands that characterize this part of the northern plains.
