2014 Map of Tolna

About this map

Tolna stands at a transition between the elevated plains and the dramatic carved topography of the Tolna Coulee, which winds through the center of the landscape before joining the Sheyenne River in the south. The township is characterized by a high density of small depressions and seasonal wetlands typical of the North Dakota prairie, with the northern edge defined by the irregular shoreline of Stump Lake. Local history is anchored by the Saint Marys Cem located just north of the town center, while a rigid grid of county roads and avenues like Lee Ave and Welcome Ave provides structure to the rural agricultural tracts. This 2014 survey records the modern infrastructure of ND-15 and Co Road 24, demonstrating how transportation routes have adapted to the winding coulees and river valleys that define the Nelson County terrain.
