2011 Map of Kramer

About this map

Kramer serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Bottineau County, where a rigid grid of rural roads like 92nd St NW and 1st Ave NE defines the prairie settlement pattern. The town is situated just north of where Stone Creek meanders westward toward its confluence with the Souris River. This river corridor in the southwestern corner is marked by significant hydrological management, specifically Dam Number 326, which creates a complex series of wetlands and pools. Local heritage is centered at the Kramer Cemetery, located a short distance southeast of the town site. The map captures the quiet intersection of human engineering and the natural drainage of the North Dakota plains, illustrating how early 21st-century water management projects interact with the established township and range road system.
