2018 Map of Karnak

About this map

Karnak sits at the heart of this prairie landscape in Griggs County, defined by a grid of agricultural section lines and rural connectors like Griggs Co 22 and Griggs Co 26. The eastern edge of the quadrangle is dominated by the winding course of the Sheyenne River, which flows into the northern reaches of Lake Ashtabula. This transition from the flat agricultural plains to the river valley provides a clear view of the region's hydrography and its influence on local land use. For those tracing the area's social history, several small landmarks offer important grounding, including the Saron Evangelical Cem and Union Cem. Modern recreation is represented by the N Country National Scenic Trail, which traces the eastern bluffs overlooking the river valley, following the natural contours of the Sheyenne's path.
