2014 Map of Minnewaukan East

About this map

Minnewaukan sits on the western edge of this landscape, overlooking the expansive waters of Devils Lake and its West Bay. The geography is defined by the complex, shifting shorelines of the lake system, where numerous smaller bodies of water like Round Lake and Long Lake punctuate the surrounding plains. These water levels significantly influence the local topography, creating distinct landforms such as Grahams Island to the east and the elevation at Sams Hill in the south. To the north, Pelican Lake stretches across the horizon, separated from the main bay by narrow strips of land. The transportation network is anchored by ND-19 and Us-281, with Old US-281 providing a trace of earlier highway alignments. A grid of rural section roads, including 67th Ave NE and 43rd St NE, reveals the organized agricultural layout of Benson County.
