About this map

Lincoln Valley serves as a central anchor in this rural Sheridan County landscape, where the agricultural grid is etched into the prairie. The community's history is preserved in its several burial grounds, including the Lincoln Valley Lutheran Cem, Kassel Reformed Church Cem, and Lincoln Valley Baptist Cem, which reflect the denominational roots of the area's early settlers. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Sheyenne River, which cuts across the township boundaries of T149N R76W and T149N R75W.

Outdoor recreation and local industry intersect here, with the N Country National Scenic Trail meandering through the river valley and over the rolling uplands. A unique local landmark, Pete's Tractor Salvage Airport, indicates the specialized agricultural commerce of this North Dakota region. The map captures a well-organized network of section-line roads, such as 23rd St NE and 10th Ave NE, which continue to facilitate the movement of goods and people across the plains.
