About this map

Red River of the North defines the western boundary of this landscape, its serpentine meanders cutting deep oxbows through the fertile plains of the Red River Valley. The village of Wolverton serves as the primary hub, clustered near the Wolverton Post Office and the intersection of local routes like Lind Ave and Park Ave. This agricultural territory is meticulously partitioned by a grid of county highways, including County Hwy-180 and County Hwy-190, which facilitate the movement of goods and people across the flat expanse.

Genealogists and local historians can find family-named landmarks such as the Schmitt Cemetery and Wolverton Cemetery, providing a spatial record of the area's pioneer heritage. Natural drainage features like Wolverton Creek and Nyquist Coulee break the geometric regularity of the farmland, following the subtle elevation shifts of the prairie. The map records the area just as the modern infrastructure of the early 21st century is fully integrated into the historic farmsteads and rural routes like Hanson Fm Rd.
