2024 Map of Pembina OE N

About this map

The Red River meanders across this northern landscape, defining the character of the borderlands where North Dakota and Minnesota meet the international boundary with Canada. This 2024 survey captures the intricate oxbows and riparian drainage patterns of the Red River Valley, a region defined by its geological history as a glacial lake bed. Smaller tributaries like Bradley Coulee and the Joe River feed into the primary waterway, illustrating the natural drainage network of the fertile prairie. The map reflects the modern Public Land Survey System divisions, such as t164n r51w, which continue to dictate the agricultural grid and property boundaries in this sparsely populated stretch of the northern frontier.
