2011 Map of Monango

About this map

Monango and the nearby settlement of Boynton define the human landscape of this Dickey County prairie region. The town of Monango is organized around a traditional grid featuring Main Ave and 2nd Ave, reflecting the systematic development of North Dakota's agricultural hubs. Outside the town center, Monango Crossing marks a point of intersection in the open landscape, while the Werre Landing Strip serves as a small-scale aviation landmark in the northern portion of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the area is dominated by the meandering Maple River and its tributary, the South Fork Maple River, which create the primary natural variations in a terrain otherwise characterized by a strict section-line road network. These roads, including County Rd 1 and numerous numbered avenues, illustrate the enduring geometry of the Great Plains' rural infrastructure.
