1973 Map of Abbey Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The rolling plains of the Missouri Plateau are clearly defined in this early 1970s survey, centered on the boundary between Hettinger and Adams counties. Agricultural life dominates the landscape, organized within the townships of Alden, Chilton, Maine, and Indian Creek. These sections are marked by dispersed farmsteads and a network of light-duty and unimproved roads that follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. Local landmarks like Abbey Hill and Anderson Butte provide vertical relief in an area otherwise carved by the drainage of Indian Creek and Dayton Creek. For those tracing family roots in this part of North Dakota, the Alden Cem serves as a critical local waypoint, illustrating the early 20th-century settlement pattern that persisted into the post-war era.
