About this map

North Dakota and South Dakota meet at a jurisdictional crossroad where the Richland and Roberts county line aligns with the state boundary. This prairie landscape is defined by the slow-moving drainage of the Big Slough, which meanders across the northeast quadrant. Local history is anchored by the presence of the Thompson Cem and Bohemian Cem, two small burial grounds that represent early family and community ties to the land. The area is laid out in a strict grid of section lines and gravel roads, including Co RD 25 and Co RD 21, which connect isolated homesteads across the townships of t129n r50w and t128n r51w.
