2024 Map of Mouse River Park NW

About this map

The Souris River meanders through this portion of Renville County, carving a distinct valley into the North Dakota prairie. The landscape is defined by the high plateaus of the Missouri Coteau, where the grid-based road system of the Public Land Survey System meets the natural curves of the waterway. Local history is anchored by markers such as Wigdahl Cem in the northeast and Pleasant View Cem near the river’s western banks. These sites, along with the section-line roads like Co Rd 2 and 109th ST NW, reflect the agricultural heritage and early settlement patterns of the region. The map reveals the relationship between the flat upland fields and the intricate drainage patterns leading down to the river valley, where River Rd and Valley Rd track the contour of the land.
