2014 Map of Nanson

About this map

Nanson is situated at the heart of this landscape, where the prairie grid of North Dakota meets the distinct glacial topography of the northern plains. The terrain is marked by numerous small depressions and seasonal wetlands, with Ox Cr winding through the northwest corner. A notable historical anchor for the area is the North Ox Creek Cem, located north of the primary settlement along 40th Ave NE. The map illustrates the rural infrastructure of the region, defined by a network of sectional roads like 80th St NE and Co Rd 15. To the southeast, the water levels of Twin Lakes straddle the jurisdictional boundary between Rolette Co and Pierce Co, while ND-17 provides the primary east-west passage across the southern portion of the quadrangle.
