2020 Map of Leroy

About this map

Leroy sits at the eastern edge of this quadrangle in Pembina County, where the meandering loops of the Pembina River cut through the glacial till of the Red River Valley. The river’s winding course dominates the central terrain, creating a complex series of oxbows and floodplains that contrast with the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System. Further south, the small community of Leyden marks a quiet crossing at the intersection of Co Rd 1 and 132nd Ave NE. Local history is anchored by the Saint Joseph Cem near Leroy, serving as a genealogical record for the families who settled this northern prairie. The landscape is characterized by its agricultural geometry, interrupted only by the drainage of Hyde Park Coulee in the north and the dense riparian vegetation following the river's path across the townships.
