2017 Map of Towner NE

About this map

Horseshoe Lake dominates the southeastern portion of this landscape on the border of McHenry County and Pierce County. This 2017 study reflects a region shaped by North Dakota's glacial prairie pothole topography, where numerous unnamed wetlands and small water bodies dot the township lines of t158n r75w and t157n r74w. In the northern sections, the drainage of Snake Creek winds through the terrain, illustrating the hydrologic character of the Souris River basin. The map detail highlights a sparse, rural grid of section-line roads, including 11th Avenue NE and 74th Street NE, which serve the agricultural allotments characteristic of the northern Great Plains.
