2014 Map of Round Lake

About this map

The glacial prairie landscape of Pierce County is defined here by its scattered wetlands and seasonal water bodies, dominated by the wide basin of Round Lake in the north and the expansive Rush Lake to the south. This area of North Dakota remains organized around a strict section-line road grid, including 20th Ave NE and 72nd St NE, which serves the agricultural interests of the region. A notable point of interest for local historians and genealogists is the Southwest Barton Cem, situated along the western edge of the quadrangle near the curving shore of Horseshoe Lake. The topography is relatively level with subtle depressions that collect water, creating a patchwork of small ponds and sloughs between the larger named lakes.
