2024 Map of Newark NW

About this map

The state line between North Dakota and South Dakota bisects this prairie landscape, where the intersection of four counties—Sargent Co, Brown Co, and Marshall Co—creates a complex jurisdictional boundary. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of wetlands and seasonal water bodies that follow a north-south orientation, particularly concentrated in the eastern sections. This 2024 survey illustrates a highly structured section-line road system, including 100th St and Co Hwy 11, which serve the agricultural parcels of T129N R58W and T128N R59W. The mapping of these low-lying marshlands alongside the rigid Public Land Survey System grid provides a clear picture of how historical land division persists across the contemporary natural drainage patterns of the Dakotas.
