Lake Nettie National Wildlife Refuge and Camp Lake National Wildlife Refuge anchor the northern and southern edges of this McLean County landscape, illustrating the region's commitment to prairie wetland preservation. The terrain is defined by the namesake Horseshoe Valley and the expansive waters of Crooked Lake, which meanders through the eastern sections of the quadrangle. A precise section-line road network, including Co Hwy 6 and Co Hwy 8, overlays the glaciated topography, marking the organized agricultural distribution of the Public Land Survey System. This modern survey, based on 2020 imagery, documents the current drainage patterns and water levels within these protected habitats, providing an essential record for environmental researchers and those tracking the hydrology of central North Dakota.
