2017 Map of Mountain

About this map

The settlement of Mountain serves as the focal point for this section of Pembina County, situated amidst the organized grid of North Dakota's agricultural heartland. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Tongue River, Willow Cr, and Cart Cr, which provide a natural counterpoint to the straight lines of the township and range survey system. Of particular interest to local historians is the Mountain Cem, located just west of the town center near the intersection of Co Rd 3 and 129th Ave NE. The presence of the Olafson Brothers Airport in the southern portion of the map suggests the ongoing importance of private aviation in managing these expansive prairie lands. This survey documents the intersection of rural life and traditional topography, where section lines and small-scale infrastructure like Main St form the backbone of the community.
