2011 Map of Kongsberg

About this map

Kongsberg sits at a transition between the northern prairie flats and the more varied terrain found near the prominent Dogden Butte to the southeast. This McHenry County landscape is defined by its glacial prairie potholes, with numerous small unnamed water bodies scattered throughout the sections. The southern portion of the sheet is anchored by Strawberry Lake and its associated Strawberry Lake Dam, as well as the nearby Camp Lake. A network of rural section roads, including 10th Ave NW and County Hwy 27, connects the small settlement of Kongsberg to the surrounding agricultural land. The terrain data reflects the quiet, rural character of this North Dakota region before significant modern development, focusing on the essential water resources and topography that dictated the placement of farms and small hubs.
