About this map

The Pembina Valley dominates this portion of Cavalier County, where the Pembina River carves a deep, winding path through the northern plains. This landscape is defined by the dramatic incision of the river valley against the surrounding agricultural tablelands. Near the center of the sheet, the Big Pembina Cem stands as a significant point for genealogical research, overlooking the valley slopes. To the southeast, the small settlement of Vang marks a focal point for the local community, situated near the headwaters of the Little S Pembina River. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section roads, including CR-55, which navigate the challenging topography created by these northern North Dakota waterways. This era shows the persistence of remote rural settlements and the geographical importance of the valley as a natural landmark in an otherwise uniform prairie.
