2014 Map of Lunds Valley

About this map

Lunds Valley sits at the heart of this prairie landscape, where the border of Burke and Mountrail counties divides the terrain. The map documents a rural network of section-line roads, including Kings Hwy and numerous numbered routes like 83rd St NW, that connect isolated farmsteads and community landmarks. For those tracing family history in this part of North Dakota, the map identifies specific burial sites such as Saint James Cem and Elbow Lake Bethel Cem, which serve as permanent anchors for the area's early settlement. The geography is defined by glacial depressions, most notably the expansive Powers Lake in the southwest and the smaller Elbow Lake to the northeast. This 2014 survey illustrates the persistence of small-town centers and the organized agricultural grid that continues to shape life on the northern plains.
