2024 Map of Pingree SW

About this map

Pipestem Creek meanders through this portion of Stutsman County, carving a subtle path across the prairie landscape. The area is defined by its rigid section-line road network, a signature of the Public Land Survey System that organized North Dakota's central plains. Major thoroughfares like Co Hwy 42 provide east-west transit, while gravel and section roads including 71st Ave SE and 77th Ave SE grid the territory into its constituent townships, including t142n r65w and t141n r65w. The topography is dotted with numerous small prairie potholes and wetlands typical of the region, captured here as they appeared in 2024. This survey serves as a modern baseline for the drainage patterns of the Pipestem Creek basin and the enduring agricultural layout of the rural township landscape.
