2021 Map of Loyalton

About this map

Loyalton remains the central point of reference in this sparsely settled region of Edmunds County, situated at the intersection of Co Rd 12 and 3rd St. The landscape is characterized by a high density of small seasonal wetlands and depressions, common to the glacial pothole region of the Dakotas. These water features are interspersed among a rigid section-line road grid, including 140th St, 143rd St, and 147th St, which dictate the movement of agriculture and commerce across the prairie. A mile north of the primary settlement, the Loyalton Cem serves as a significant landmark for genealogists and local historians, reflecting the generations of families who established farms in these townships. The map provides a clear look at the enduring township and range system, specifically defining the boundaries of t121n r70w and surrounding areas.
