About this map

The prairie landscape of Edmunds County is defined here by a rigorous grid of section lines and township boundaries, including t123n r72w and t123n r71w. This terrain is characterized by numerous small depressional wetlands and seasonal water bodies typical of the glaciated plains, which dictate the winding paths of rural routes like Valley Rd as they deviate from the cardinal grid. The agricultural infrastructure is linked by a network of gravel roads such as Co Rd 8 and Co Rd 4A, which serve the scattered farmsteads of the region.

Transportation corridors like 134th St and north-south arteries including 336th Ave and 339th Ave provide the primary framework for movement through this rural expanse. For researchers, the map illustrates the persistence of early 20th-century land division patterns into the 21st century, showing how modern county roads like Glover Rd still follow the original survey lines established during the settlement era.
