2011 Map of Steele

About this map

The town of Steele serves as a central hub in this high-plains landscape, where the local street grid is defined by thoroughfares like Mitchell Ave N and Indiana Ave SW. This 2011 survey captures the area's transition from an aviation and transport center, anchored by the Steele Municipal Airport, to a natural mosaic of prairie potholes and seasonal water bodies. To the south and west, the elongated reaches of Long Lake dominate the terrain, while the eastern edge is defined by the proximity of Alkali Lake and Lake Etta. The map highlights a rigid section-line road network, including 40th St SE and 25th Ave SE, which underscores the systematic agricultural development of Kidder County. The presence of Weber Lake near the center of the quadrangle illustrates the scattered wetland character typical of the North Dakota glaciated plains.
