About this map

The Coteau des Prairies rises sharply across this 2015 survey, marking the dramatic geological divide between the low-lying glacial lake plains and the high prairie plateau. This transition spans the boundary between North and South Dakota, where the grid of sections meets the undulating terrain of the upland. White Lake sits at the northern edge of the sheet, while the small settlement of Marlow is positioned just below the state line on the South Dakota side.

The map reveals a landscape defined by traditional section-line roads such as 104th St and 101st St SE, which intersect with the natural drainage patterns of La Belle Cr. This area, encompassing parts of Sargent and Marshall counties, preserves the rural character of the northern plains, showing the sparse infrastructure and remote farmstead connections like Marlow Ln and Cr-5 that serve this high-elevation plateau.
