About this map

The agricultural plains of Richland County are depicted here in detail, centered on the small rural communities of Wyndmere and Barney. This portion of the Red River Valley shows a landscape defined by a precise section-line grid, where roads like Co Rd 30 and Co Rd 10 connect isolated farmsteads and local landmarks. Several historic burial grounds, including Homestead Cem, Saint John's Cem, and Peace Lutheran Cem, provide important points of reference for genealogists and local historians tracking the early families of the region.

Small-scale aviation is represented by Sanden Airport and Hager Strip, reflecting the necessity of air travel in the vast, open terrain of eastern North Dakota. The drainage patterns and wetlands shown among the townships of t133n r51w and t134n r51w illustrate the unique prairie potholes characteristic of this region, providing a modern look at a landscape that has long been the backbone of the state's farming economy.
