2020 Map of Silverleaf

About this map

The Maple River meanders through this portion of Dickey County, carving a narrow valley through a landscape defined by the rectangular grid of the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals the intersection of several townships, including t130n r62w and t131n r62w, where rural life is anchored by a network of sectional roads such as 93rd St SE and 94th Ave SE. A significant local landmark is the Maple River Colony Cem, situated near the river's path, while seasonal drainage is marked by the presence of the Dry Branch. This survey illustrates the contemporary agricultural character of the North Dakota plains, showing the persistent relationship between the prairie hydrology and the precise human organization of the land into townships and ranges.
