About this map

The divide between Grand Forks and Steele counties in North Dakota is defined by a grid of rural roads and scattered water bodies. The landscape is marked by several small family or congregational burial grounds, including Herlickson Cem and Bethania Cem in the northern half, and Hanson Cem situated near the county line. These sites often indicate the locations of early immigrant settlements and parish centers that anchored the agricultural community. Lake Tobiason occupies a significant portion of the southeastern corner, serving as a prominent landmark in an area characterized by intermittent streams like Spring Cr and Beaver Cr. The rigid network of section roads, such as Co Rd 20 and Eagle Ave NE, reflects the systematic land surveys that shaped the Red River Valley region.
