What is a PLSS township?
A Public Land Survey System township is a block of land about 6 miles on a side, divided into 36 sections of roughly 1 square mile (640 acres) each. T163N R91W sits in the 163rd row of townships north of the baseline and the 91st range west of the 5th Principal Meridian, the north-south line that legal descriptions in this part of North Dakota are measured from. Corrections and older surveys leave some townships with fractional or extra sections.
