2014 Map of Spiritwood

About this map

Spiritwood and the smaller settlement of Urbana anchor this landscape along the eastern edge of Stutsman County. The map documents a classic North Dakota prairie environment, where the land is strictly organized by a regular grid of section roads including Haxtun Ave S and various numbered streets. This rigid survey pattern is frequently interrupted by the natural depressions of the Prairie Pothole Region, most notably Rush Island Lake, Island Lake, and Goose Lake. The boundary between Stutsman Co and Barnes Co runs vertically through the center of the sheet, illustrating how political lines often bisect these agricultural expanses. This 2014 edition captures the modern infrastructure of the region, showing how Interstate 94 cuts an east-west path across the southern portion of the quadrangle, facilitating transport between the rural townships.
