2014 Map of Wales

About this map

Wales stands as the primary settlement on this North Dakota prairie landscape, situated in northern Cavalier Co near the international border. The town's layout is defined by its proximity to the Great Northern St rail corridor, which serves as a vital artery for the region's agricultural output. The presence of Elevator Rd adjacent to the tracks underscores the area's deep-rooted reliance on grain storage and transport. Outside the town limits, the terrain is characterized by a high-density grid of section roads, including CR-17 and CR-6, which carve through a landscape dotted with small prairie potholes and seasonal wetlands. The northern reaches of the sheet are drained by Snowflake Cr, winding through the hills south of the United States and Canada border.
