1969 Map of Rock Lake NW

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The international boundary between Canada and the United States defines the northern edge of this landscape in Towner County. This 1960s survey illustrates a region dominated by a sprawling network of wetlands and small water bodies characteristic of the prairie pothole region. Central to the map is the northern reach of Rock Lake, which stretches southward through the township of Smith. The land is organized into a rigid grid of section lines and field boundaries, punctuated by isolated structures and benchmarks like BM 1545. A lone townhall stands as a civic marker in the center of the sheet, serving the surrounding rural communities of Dash and Lansing. The terrain is relatively flat, with subtle elevation changes marked by numerous small depressions that collect seasonal water, reflecting the agricultural and natural drainage patterns along the Manitoba and North Dakota border.
