A Cavalier County township map answers two different questions around Calio: which local township a property sits in, and where it falls on the survey grid. This guide covers the free Cavalier County, ND options and how to read them.
What a Cavalier County township map lists
A township name on a county tax record refers to the civil township where the land near Loma sits. Rural land in Cavalier County follows the federal survey grid, in which each township is about 36 square miles, divided into 36 numbered sections.
Opening the Cavalier County parcel viewer
The county's own public map is the Cavalier County Beacon site, built on Schneider Geospatial's Beacon platform, and it opens without an account for parcels in Langdon and the rest of the county. Search an Alsen address on the county search page, read the report, then jump to the map to see that parcel's outline. Our Cavalier County, ND page keeps the official link and the maps next door to Alsen in one place.
Using the Cavalier County parcel viewer as a Cavalier County township map
The Cavalier County Beacon site is the quickest Cavalier County township map for most people: switch on boundaries and click a parcel near Hove Mobile Park. Some Cavalier County viewers include a PLSS layer that labels sections, which helps when a deed near Loma cites T and R numbers.
Why the township matters
In Cavalier County, township boundaries decide which local office you deal with, so look it up well before you call about land near Hove Mobile Park. Assessment and tax districts in Cavalier County are frequently tied to the township, so two neighboring parcels near Loma can carry different rates.
From Langdon to the back roads
Town lots cluster around Langdon, the county seat, and Alsen, Calio, Calvin, and Hannah. Unincorporated communities in the county, including Clyde, Dresden, and Hove Mobile Park, display up as small groups of parcels along the roads. Roughly 1,489 square miles of land and about 3,596 residents (2023 estimate) make up Cavalier County. Beyond the town lots in Milton, expect big rural parcels across the county. Cavalier County was organized in 1873, so deeds for older farms near Calvin can run back a long way.
How the survey grid is numbered
Near Calio, section 1 sits in the northeast corner of a licensed survey township, with the count snaking back and forth to 36 in the southeast. Quarter-quarter descriptions in Cavalier County read backward: locate the southwest quarter, then its northeast quarter, on the Cavalier County grid. Water, old surveys and corrections can leave odd-sized lots along section edges in Cavalier County.
Deeds, districts and roads
Township names on a historical atlas of Cavalier County can help when a family deed near Hannah uses an old place name. For property tax questions, the township shown on the county record for a parcel near Milton is the one that counts.
Work and land use in Cavalier County

Wholesale of nondurable goods (including farm products) and building material and garden supply dealers make up an above-average share of Cavalier County businesses, a clue to how land around Hannah gets used.
Deeds and plats behind the Cavalier County map
For land near Milton, the deed itself lives in the county recording office, and the map is an index to it. Easements and access rights near Calio live in recorded documents, so read the deed, not just the county map.
