2011 Map of Wabek

About this map

Wabek and Prairie Junction stand as small focal points within this rural North Dakota landscape, situated along a grid of section roads like 65th Ave NW and 40th St NW. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and branches of significant local drainages, including East Fork Shell Creek in the north and the converging paths of Deepwater Creek and East Fork Deepwater Creek to the south. This 2011 survey captures a quiet agricultural era where the placement of the Lutheran Cemetery suggests the deep-rooted community ties of early settlers in Mountrail County. The map provides a clear record of land divisions and water features before the intensification of modern development, making it a valuable resource for tracing family homesteads or understanding the natural hydrology of the plains.
