2024 Map of Oberon SW

About this map

The Sheyenne River cuts an east-west path through this part of the North Dakota prairie, marking a distinct physical break in the agricultural grid of Eddy and Benson counties. This 2024 map documents a landscape defined by water management and conservation, notably within the sprawling Eddy County Waterfowl Production Area, where numerous seasonal wetlands and basins like Shroyer Lake are preserved. For genealogists and local historians, the Grandfield Lutheran Cem serves as a critical point of interest, situated near the intersection of 64th Ave NE and Co Rd 7. On the eastern edge of the sheet, the small settlement of Divide sits along the section line, reflecting the early 20th-century township patterns that continue to shape the region's rural character and transport networks today.
