2024 Map of Palermo NW

About this map

Mountrail County Waterfowl Production Area dominates this section of the Missouri Plateau, where numerous prairie potholes and wetlands create a complex hydrological network. The landscape is structured by a rigorous section-line road grid, including 75th St NW and 72nd Ave NW, which negotiate the hummocky terrain of the glacial drift plain. Historical and genealogical interest centers on the Zion Lutheran Cem, a lonely landmark reflecting the early 20th-century Scandinavian settlement patterns common to this part of North Dakota. Modern transit is represented by the S Prairie Trl, which cuts through the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The map captures the specialized conservation land use of the region, where designated production areas protect vital habitat within the surrounding agricultural framework.
