1971 Map of Thompson

Tracing the rural social fabric, the map highlights localized centers of community life such as Walle Ch, the Townhall, and several cemeteries including St James Cem and Thompson Cem. In the northeast, the Red River forms the state boundary with Minnesota, where a Radio Tower and Golf Course mark the outskirts of the neighboring urban area. Infrastructure of the era is evident in the presence of a Landing Strip, extensive Pipeline networks, and managed waterways like Drain No 4, reflecting the sophisticated drainage systems required for prairie farming.
