About this map

Manitou anchors the northeastern portion of this Mountrail County landscape, situated near a prominent rail siding and the junction of Co Hwy 2 and 94th Ave Nw. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the White Earth River, which carves a deep valley through the southwestern sections of the quadrangle. This drainage pattern creates a distinct contrast between the flat upland agricultural fields and the more complex topography of the river breaks.

A grid of section-line roads, including 62nd St Nw and 65th St Nw, provides access to the surrounding farmsteads and rural properties. Local access points like Watson Dr near the river valley illustrate the intersection of modern transportation with the region's natural geography. The map captures the organized nature of the Public Land Survey System, showing several townships including t156n r93w and t155n r94w as they were delineated in the late 2010s.
