About this map

Goose Lake and the surrounding prairie of North Dakota's Pierce County dominate this mid-century topographic study. The landscape is dotted with numerous small potholes and sloughs, including Soap Lake, Spring Lake, and Herd Lake, reflecting the post-glacial drainage patterns of the Torgerson region. This period shows a transition in rural infrastructure, marked by a series of schoolhouses serving the local farming population. While Burke Sch No 3 and Burke Sch No 4 remained in service, several others like Spruce Hill Sch No 1 and Burke Sch No 1 were already noted as abandoned by 1954. To the south, the city boundary of Rugby appears, showing the northwestern edge of the community as it looked before significant modern expansion.
