2017 Map of Starkweather

About this map

Starkweather serves as the primary hub of this prairie landscape, where the local Po and structured grid including Main St and Martin St anchor the rural community. The surrounding terrain is defined by the complex hydrography of the Devils Lake Basin, most notably the seasonal waters of Davis Slough which meanders through the southern sections. This 2017 survey details the meticulously surveyed Public Land Survey System grid, shown through the boundaries of t158n r65w and t157n r64w. The map documents the persistent county line separating the Towner Co and Ramsey Co border, illustrating how political boundaries and section lines dictate the placement of local roads like 74th St NE across the North Dakota plains.
