2024 Map of Rock Lake

About this map

The settlement of Rock Lake serves as a local hub in this prairie landscape, where the street grid of Main St, Eller Ave, and Laphan Ave meets the surrounding agricultural section lines. This modern survey illustrates a region defined by its conservation areas, notably the Rock Lake National Wildlife Refuge and the Towner County Waterfowl Production Area. These protected wetlands and water bodies, including the central Rock Lake, are integrated into the Public Land Survey System grid, which is clearly marked by rural roads like 93rd St NE and 72nd Ave NE. In the southern portion of the map, the Brumba National Wildlife Refuge further highlights the importance of the migratory flyway in Towner County, where the landscape is an intricate network of sloughs and cultivated fields.
