2012 Map of Stafford Dam

About this map

The rolling plains of western Edmunds County are defined by a rhythmic grid of rural section-line roads, such as 350th Ave and 143rd St, which navigate a landscape pockmarked with prairie potholes and small wetlands. In the northeastern portion of the sheet, Saint Johns Cem serves as a quiet landmark for local family histories and early settlement patterns in this agricultural region. Further south, the map features Stafford Dam, a focal point for water management in an area otherwise dominated by seasonal ponds. The network of corridors like Co Rd suggests the enduring importance of transit between isolated farmsteads and the broader county infrastructure during the early 21st century.
