1970 Map of Rock Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Rock Lake (Rocklake PO) serves as the central hub for this portion of Towner County, positioned just west of the sprawling Rock Lake basin. This landscape is defined by the extensive Rock Lake National Wildlife Refuge, which protects the numerous wetlands and waterways fed by Mauvais Coulee. The map illustrates a critical transportation junction where the Burlington Northern and Soo Line railroads converge, supporting the agricultural economy of the Virginia and Lansing townships. The presence of a Sewage Disposal Pond south of the town center reflects the infrastructure requirements of this rural community in the 1970s. Researchers will find a grid of section lines and field boundaries that speak to the systematic land division and persistent farming traditions of North Dakota's northern plains.
