2020 Map of Hurricane Lake East

About this map

Hurricane Lake anchors the southwestern corner of this prairie landscape where the border of Pierce Co and Towner Co meets. The terrain is defined by the section-line grid of rural routes, including 54th Ave NE and 74th St NE, which structure the agricultural layout of Townships 157 and 158 North. This 2020 map documents the persistent religious and community sites of the region, specifically around the North Prairie Lutheran Church and its accompanying North Prairie Lutheran Church Cem. Other small burial grounds, such as Wahl Cem and Ostreim Cem, remain as vital landmarks for genealogists and local historians tracking early settlement patterns in this part of North Dakota. The map illustrates a classic Great Plains drainage and road network, largely unchanged in its primary geometry since early land surveys.
