2020 Map of Steele NE

About this map

Dawson anchors the southern edge of this prairie landscape, where the flat terrain of Kidder County is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and seasonal basins. This 2020 survey illustrates a highly structured grid of section roads, including 29th St SE through 37th St SE, which partition the land for agricultural use. North of the settlement, the hydrology dominates the character of the quadrangle, notably the expansive Buffalo Lake and the nearby Dead Buffalo Lake. For those researching local family history, the Allen Cem is a significant genealogical landmark situated in the western portion of the map. The cartography reveals a quiet, rural economy where the natural drainage patterns of the northern plains dictate the placement of roads like N Meadowlark Way and the preservation of open acreage.
