2011 Map of Trenton NE

About this map

Painted Woods Creek and Sand Creek define the drainage patterns across this section of Williams County, where the landscape is organized by a strict geometric grid of section lines and gravel roads. This 2011 survey reveals the sparsely populated rural character of the region north of the Missouri River valley. The most significant historical marker on the map is the Painted Woods Cemetery, located in the southern portion of the quadrangle near the intersection of 145th Ave NW and 51st St NW. The network of secondary routes like County Hwy-6 and County Hwy-4 provides access to scattered farmsteads and agricultural plots that dominate the terrain, illustrating the enduring homesteading patterns that shaped the North Dakota plains.
