2011 Map of Sheyenne Lake

About this map

The upper reaches of the Sheyenne River define this rural Sheridan County landscape, where the water flows through a chain of prairie wetlands including Sheyenne Lake and the elongated Coal Mine Lake. The terrain is marked by a rigid grid of section roads like 23rd St NE and 15th Ave NE, reflecting the enduring agricultural structure of the North Dakota plains. At a quiet intersection in the southwestern portion of the quadrangle lies Saint Emanuel Cemetery, a significant point for genealogists tracing the heritage of early regional settlers. Near the center of the survey, Lone Tree Lake sits isolated among the fields, illustrating the characteristic drainage patterns and pothole lakes common to this part of the state in the early 21st century.
