2011 Map of Otter Creek East

About this map

The Heart River winds through this rural landscape in Morton County, creating a series of deep loops as it flows eastward. This drainage system is the primary geographic feature of the region, joined by smaller tributaries including Otter Creek and Beaver Creek. The map shows a classic section-line road grid characteristic of the northern plains, where gravel routes like 40th Ave and 58th St delineate large agricultural tracts. This 2011 survey reveals the enduring rural character of the area, where human presence is defined by the intersection of these long section roads with the irregular, natural paths of the river valleys. Local transportation is facilitated by County Rd 84, which provides the primary east-west corridor across the northern portion of the terrain.
