About this map

Souris River meanders across the southern half of this landscape, carving a distinct valley through the prairie of McHenry County. The geography is defined by a grid of rural section lines, including 50th St N and 57th St N, which organize the agricultural territory of townships t155n r78w and t154n r78w. A notable point of local history is Trinity Cem, situated on a topographic rise overlooking the river flats. The northern reaches are characterized by a series of wetlands and seasonal water bodies, typical of the pothole region, where roads like 7th Avenue NW provide the primary access through the open terrain. Modern infrastructure is represented by Souris Dr and 53 Pkwy N, which follow the contours of the river valley near the southern border.
