2011 Map of Vashti

About this map

Vashti sits at the heart of this Stutsman County landscape, serving as the central point for a grid of rural roads that define the region's agricultural character. The terrain is marked by the Pipestem Creek which meanders through the northeastern corner of the map, and the Brush Hills rising in the northwest. This 2011 survey documents the intricate pattern of wetlands and small prairie potholes that dot the southern half of the quadrangle, a characteristic feature of the North Dakota glaciated plains. Key landmarks such as Round Top provide distinct elevation points in an otherwise subtly rolling environment. The map details the systematic layout of rural routes, including 66th Ave SE and 15th St SE, which facilitate travel between the scattered homesteads and the settlement of Vashti.
