About this map

The agrarian landscape of Grand Forks County is defined by a rigorous section line grid, documented here by the U.S. Geological Survey in the late 2010s. This portion of the Red River Valley shows a highly organized rural infrastructure, where life and transit revolve around a network of gravel and paved roads such as Co Rd 14 and 37th St Ne. The map reveals the subtle topographic undulations typical of this glaciated plain, with various intermittent drainage patterns crossing the fields between arterial routes like 31st Ave Ne and 23rd Ave Ne. This survey is a clear record of modern land use in North Dakota's wheat and beet country, reflecting the persistent geometry of the Public Land Survey System through its townships and ranges.
