2017 Map of Mork Lake

About this map

Township Cem serves as a small but significant historical marker in this agricultural region of Ward County. This landscape is defined by the unique hydrology of the northern plains, where small prairie potholes and seasonal drainages such as Larsons Coulee and Gassman Coulee etch the terrain. The presence of Mork Lake in the southern portion of the sheet provides a rare permanent water body in a territory otherwise dominated by section-line roads like Co Hwy 13 and 54th Ave SW. The map reveals the rigid efficiency of the Public Land Survey System, with the intersection of four different townships visible through the boundaries of t155n r85w, t155n r84w, t154n r85w, and t154n r84w.
