1972 Map of North Salt Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

North Salt Lake and its surrounding wetlands anchor this prairie landscape in the early 1970s. The map illustrates a highly managed agricultural environment, defined by the County Ditch No 67A and County Ditch No 13 systems that redirect water across the flat terrain of Midland and Martin townships. Environmental preservation efforts are evident in the North Salt Lake State Game Management Area, which borders the lake's southern edge. Transportation and infrastructure follow the section lines of the Red River Valley, with the Burlington Northern railroad running along the eastern boundary. This survey was produced through a collaboration between the USGS and the State of North Dakota Water Commission, reflecting the era's focus on hydrology and land drainage in the border region between Pembina and Walsh counties.
