2011 Map of Rugby NE

About this map

Sand Lake serves as a central landmark in this agricultural region of Pierce County, where the landscape is defined by countless small prairie potholes and seasonal wetlands. This 2011 survey illustrates a highly organized section-line road system, with thoroughfares like County Hwy 3521 and 42nd Ave NE facilitating movement through the rural plains. The map reflects a modern era of land management, where the intersection of roads such as 74th St NE and 37th Ave Ne marks the boundaries of large farming plots. While largely focused on topography and hydrology, the placement of structures along these routes indicates the sparse, yet persistent, rural habitation typical of the northern Great Plains.
