2018 Map of Spiritwood

About this map

Stutsman Co Barnes Co defines the central axis of this landscape, marking the boundary where local townships meet in the North Dakota plains. The small community of Spiritwood sits along the western edge of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural grid. The terrain is characterized by a high density of small wetlands and depressions typical of the prairie pothole region, with larger bodies of water such as Rush Island Lake, Island Lake, and Goose Lake punctuating the sections. Transportation is dominated by a systematic network of section-line roads, including Co Hwy 62 and Airport Rd, while the tiny settlement of Urbana remains situated further east near the county line. The map illustrates the persistent structure of rural land division and the integration of modern infrastructure like the interstate corridor into this historic farming landscape.
