2014 Map of Ross

About this map

Ross centers this Mountrail County landscape, where the intersection of Central Ave and the railroad corridor defines the town's small-town grid. The surrounding prairie is surveyed into a precise section-line network of roads, including Cr-2 and numerous numeric routes such as 90th Ave NW and 60th St NW. Three distinct burial grounds speak to the local heritage of this rural community: Manitou Cem to the west, Rosehill Cem north of the town center, and Moslem Cem to the east. The terrain is marked by the complex, small-scale depressions and potholes typical of North Dakota's glacial drift plain, which created the scattered wetlands and irregular contours that dictate the path of local travel between established farmsteads and the central settlement.
