About this map

The Sheyenne River meanders across this landscape on the boundary between Benson and Eddy Counties, defining a terrain characterized by prairie potholes and glacial depressions. In the northern reaches, the river valley is the primary topographical feature, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is marked by numerous wetlands and the larger Shroyer Lake. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Grandfield Lutheran Cem is a significant waypoint located near the center of the survey area, positioned away from the primary settlements. The small community of Divide sits near the eastern edge, connected by a network of rural section roads like 64th Ave NE and 24th St NE that divide the land into its traditional agricultural townships.
