1972 Map of Pembina
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The Red River and Pembina River converge at the historic border settlement of Pembina, marking a critical juncture of geography and international commerce. This area of the Red River Valley is defined by its role as a northern gateway, featuring the Port of Entry US Customs at Noyes and the intricate rail network of the Burlington Northern and Soo Line. The landscape reflects a deeply rooted community structure, with family and local history centered around Lutheran Cem, Joe River Cem, and Evangelical Cem. While the town of St Vincent lies across the river in Minnesota, the proximity of McArthur and the Sultan line illustrates the tight coordination between these border states. Large drainage projects like County Ditch No 28 and County Ditch No 29 emphasize the engineering required to manage this flat, fertile floodplain.
