1983 Map of Alkaline Lake SW

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and countless small depressions define this section of North Dakota, recorded as it appeared in the late 1970s. The landscape is divided among the rural townships of Glendale, Bryant, and Dixon, where section lines and unimproved roads form a rigid grid across the undulating terrain. A solitary Townhall stands in Glendale, while the Salem Cem in the eastern portion of the sheet provides a tangible link to the area's early settlement history. The topography is predominantly characterized by interior drainage, with numerous small water bodies scattered across the townships, reflecting the post-glacial geography of the Missouri Coteau region. This survey captures the sparse, agrarian character of the plains before modern agricultural shifts or development altered the quiet footprint of these rural communities.
