Civil townships vs. survey townships

Step one: the free Sioux County viewer

For land around Fort Yates, open the Sioux County Portico map (Sidwell's Portico platform); it's the map Sioux County itself publishes.

Bookmark our Sioux County page too; it tracks the official North Dakota link if it moves and lists the maps around Solen.

Using the Sioux County parcel viewer as a Sioux County township map

On the Sioux County Portico map, the parcel record for a tract near Selfridge typically lists the township, and many viewers draw township lines as a layer. Copy the section-township-range from the Sioux County parcel record to match it with a deed or an older atlas.

Reading sections near Solen

For land around Selfridge, numbering starts with section 1 in the northeast corner, with the count snaking back and forth to 36 in the southeast. Calls like 'NE 1/4 of the SW 1/4' near Solen are read from the end: locate the southwest quarter, then its northeast quarter, on the county grid. Correction lines and irregular sections exist, so a section near Selfridge may not be exactly 640 acres.
