==Geography== Traill County lies on the east side of North Dakota. Its east boundary line abuts the west boundary line of the state of [[Minnesota]] (across the [[Red River of the North|Red River]]). The [[Goose River (North Dakota)|Goose River]] flows eastward through the center of the county to discharge into the Red. The northward-flowing Red River forms the eastern boundary line of the county on its way to the Hudson Bay, and the [[Elm River (North Dakota–South Dakota)|Elk River]] flows south-southeastward through the southwestern part of the county. The county terrain consists of rolling hills, devoted to agriculture.<ref name="TCND">{{Cite web |title=Traill County · North Dakota |url=https://www.google.com/maps/place/Traill+County,+ND/@47.4238458,-97.0282326,31874m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x52c5ef71ac4fd955:0x79a7b8ef82002903!8m2!3d47.4636775!4d-97.1256368 |access-date=2024-04-27 |website=Google Maps |language=en}}</ref> The terrain slopes to the east and north, with its highest point on the lower western boundary line, at {{convert|1,201|ft|m|abbr=on}} ASL.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-altitude.htm |title="Find an Altitude/Traill County ND" Google Maps (accessed February 24, 2019) |access-date=February 24, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190521043409/https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-altitude.htm |archive-date=May 21, 2019 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The county has a total area of {{convert|863|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|862|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|0.6|sqmi}} (0.07%) is water.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_38.txt|publisher=United States Census Bureau|access-date=February 1, 2015|date=August 22, 2012|title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150129045530/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_38.txt|archive-date=January 29, 2015}}</ref> ===Major highways=== * [[Image:I-29.svg|25px]] [[Interstate 29 in North Dakota|Interstate 29]] * [[Image:US 81.svg|25px]] [[U.S. Route 81 in North Dakota|US 81]] * [[Image:ND-18 (2015).svg|25px]] [[North Dakota Highway 18]] * [[Image:ND-200 (2015).svg|25px]] [[North Dakota Highway 200]] * [[Image:ND-200A (2015).svg|25px]] [[North Dakota Highway 200 Alternate (Traill County)|North Dakota Highway 200A]] ===Airports=== * [[Hillsboro Municipal Airport (North Dakota)|Hillsboro Municipal Airport]] (3H4) * [[Mayville Municipal Airport]] (D56) ===Adjacent counties=== {{div col|colwidth=30em}} * [[Grand Forks County, North Dakota|Grand Forks County]] - north * [[Polk County, Minnesota]] - northeast * [[Norman County, Minnesota]] - east * [[Cass County, North Dakota|Cass County]] - south * [[Steele County, North Dakota|Steele County]] - west {{div col end}}
