About this map

Straubville anchors this prairie landscape in southeastern North Dakota, where the grid of section roads meets a complex network of wetlands and seasonal sloughs. The northern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by protected habitats, including the Sargent County Waterfowl Production Area and the waters of Lake Taayer. This area reflects the glacial geology of the Prairie Pothole Region, where numerous depressions like Pickell Slough and Meszaros Slough dot the landscape between cultivated fields.

Local history is preserved at the Scandinavian Hilltop Cem located along the northern boundary near 89th St SE. The map details the rural infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural economy, from the established path of Co Rd 3 to the drainage systems such as Ditch Number 1. These features illustrate the intersection of conservation efforts and century-old farming traditions in Sargent County.
