2011 Map of Rolette SW

About this map

Ox Creek meanders across this rural Rolette County landscape, defining the hydrology of a region characterized by scattered glacial prairie potholes. The terrain is dominated by a systematic grid of section roads, including north-south corridors like 35th Ave NE and 32nd Ave NE, which provide access to the agricultural tracts between water bodies. Two prominent permanent features, Wright Lake and Kishpaugh Lake, sit east of the central meridian, serving as local landmarks in an otherwise open, prairie environment. This 2011 survey illustrates the modern persistence of the Public Land Survey System, where road placement strictly follows the township and range lines established over a century prior.
