2018 Map of Sterling

About this map

Sterling serves as the central hub of this Burleigh County landscape, situated where local routes and township lines intersect. The settlement is anchored by key community markers including the Po and the Sterling Union Cem located just to the north. The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of intermittent drainage patterns and small wetlands, most notably the winding course of Random Creek and the larger catchment of the Sterling Reservoir to the southeast. A grid of county roads, such as Co Hwy 10 and Lincoln Rd, provides a clear view of the rural property divisions across townships T139N R76W and T138N R76W. This survey captures the region's agricultural character and the critical role of local water management in the North Dakota plains.
