2020 Map of Temvik

About this map

Temvik sits at the northern edge of this landscape in Emmons County, marking a pocket of settlement in the North Dakota plains. The terrain is characterized by prominent elevations such as Temvik Butte and Winchester Butte, which rise above the surrounding drainage basins of Sand Cr and Spring Cr. For genealogists and local historians, several burial grounds are preserved across the sections, including Temvik Cem, the Sand Creek Cem near the central creeks, and the Linton Cem located at the southeastern corner. The map traces the winding course of Beaver Cr through the southern townships, eventually reaching Heidrich Slough. The surveyed grid of township and range lines, such as t133n r77w and t134n r76w, organizes a network of rural roads that connect these isolated landmarks and small homestead clusters.
