2014 Map of Rutland

About this map

The town of Rutland anchors the eastern edge of this Sargent County landscape, serving as a focal point for a region defined by its complex hydrography and agricultural grid. The meandering path of the Wild Rice River cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, surrounded by several prominent water bodies including Silver Lake, Sprague Lake, and Lake Mann. These wetlands and lakes are characteristic of the drift prairie, where drainage patterns are often subtle and non-integrated. To the north, the headwaters of Crooked Cr wind through the section lines. For local historians and genealogists, the inclusion of Trinity Cem in the southwest provides a specific point of interest for family research. The map also documents the primary transit corridor of ND-11, which connects the small settlement of Rutland to the surrounding rural sections.
