About this map

Valley City anchors the southeastern corner of this study, where the Sheyenne River carves a winding path through the North Dakota plains. The map reveals the intricate residential street grid of the city, including thoroughfares like W Main St and Viking Dr, while the Barnes County Municipal Airport sits just to the northwest. Historical and genealogical interest is found at the Maryvale Convent Cem and Woodbine Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community's heritage.

The landscape outside the city is defined by significant water bodies and rural transit routes. To the west, Hobart Lake and McDonald Lake dot the prairie, while Big Swamp marks the low-lying terrain to the south. Modern recreation and travel are represented by the North Country National Scenic Trail, which skirts the river valley, and the small settlement of Berea located at the junction of Co Hwy 22. This survey provides a precise look at the intersection of urban growth and the natural drainage patterns of the Sheyenne basin.
