2014 Map of Sheldon

About this map

Sheldon sits at the northern edge of this Ransom County landscape, a small prairie community defined by its grid of streets including Front St and Mountain Ave. To the south, the terrain shifts dramatically as it meets the Sheyenne National Grassland, where the winding path of the Sheyenne River carves through the plains. This river corridor is a primary focal point for local transit, featuring several named crossings that provide essential connectivity for rural residents and agricultural operations. Among these are McCusker Bridge, Legg Bridge, and Larson Bridge. Further south, the settlement of Anselm remains a distinct point on the map, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns of the North Dakota prairie. The map provides clear detail on the township and range grid system, showing the numerous section lines that organize the agricultural fields and rural homesteads of the region.
